UI (<strong>User</strong> Interface) the part of an application the user experiences as opposed to the<br />

<strong>in</strong>ternal function<strong>in</strong>g of the program.<br />

undo a command <strong>in</strong>cluded <strong>in</strong> many word process<strong>in</strong>g and graphics software applications<br />

that allows a user to elim<strong>in</strong>ate or reverse the last action. For example,<br />

say you’ve just applied a moustache to the Mona Lisa with your new pa<strong>in</strong>t<br />

program. You then decide you like the pa<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g better the way it was orig<strong>in</strong>ally.<br />

With a click of the undo button or command, the moustache is gone. In many<br />

W<strong>in</strong>dows compatible programs, press<strong>in</strong>g the Ctrl and Z keys together will accomplish<br />

the same th<strong>in</strong>g as the undo feature.<br />

undocumented features <strong>in</strong>cluded <strong>in</strong> a program that were not described <strong>in</strong> the users<br />

manual. Sometimes undocumented items are left out un<strong>in</strong>tentionally. Sometimes<br />

undocumented features were present to facilitate the writ<strong>in</strong>g of the<br />

program by the designers and programmers and thought to be unimportant<br />

to the end-user. Other times, such features are present as part of a test <strong>in</strong><br />

determ<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g whether they will be <strong>in</strong>cluded <strong>in</strong> future versions of the program.<br />

UNIX a multitask<strong>in</strong>g, multi-user, operat<strong>in</strong>g system created by Ken Thompson and<br />

Dennis Ritchie along with a small team at Bell Laboratories <strong>in</strong> the early 1970s.<br />

Although felt to be user un-friendly, UNIX evolved over the years and has<br />

become popular. Because it was orig<strong>in</strong>ally distributed <strong>in</strong> its source language<br />

format, anyone could make modifications to the system. Today there are two<br />

major versions of the program, System V, produced by Bell Labs and BSD4.x,<br />

developed at Berkley University.<br />
