tourist information
|
|
|
|
n. Information in an on-line display that is not immediately useful, but
|
|
contributes to a viewer's gestalt of what's going on with the software or
|
|
hardware behind it. Whether a given piece of info falls in this category
|
|
depends partly on what the user is looking for at any given time. The bytes
|
|
free information at the bottom of an MS-DOS or Windows dir display is
|
|
tourist information; so (most of the time) is the TIME information in a Unix
|
|
ps (1) display.
