A warm startperforms only the second stage ofthe startup process, that is, thesecond stage of a two-stage boot.wild.card: In the Editor, a symbolused to represent a sequence ofcharacters. When specifyingfilenames, a symbol used in place ofa volume name or a sequence ofcharacters within a filename.word: Two bytes, or a collection of16 bits.word-aligned: An instruction orstructure starting at an even byte(see byte-aligned).WORDSTREAM type: An AppleII Pascal data type that correspondsto an array of word-sized elementswith a single dimension ofundefined size.workfile: The default file forEditing, Compiling, Assembling, andRunning. The workfile refers to twoseparate files namedSYSTEM.WRK.TEXT andSYSTEM.WRK.CODE.zero page: Memory locations $00through $FF.Glossaryv 17
