command interpreter) which can be re-entered without re-typing
them. The major improvement of the C shell (csh) over the

you to recall previous commands as the current input line. You
could then edit the command using cursor motion, insert and
delete. These sort of history editing facilities are available
under tcsh and GNU Emacs.

Natural history, in its broadest sense, a history or
description of nature as a whole, including the sciences

botany and Zoology collectively, and sometimes to the
science of zoology alone.

Natural law, that instinctive sense of justice and of right
and wrong, which is native in mankind, as distinguished
from specifically revealed divine law, and formulated
human law.

Natural modulation (Mus.), transition from one key to its

branch of physical science, commonly called physics,
which treats of the phenomena and laws of matter and
considers those effects only which are unaccompanied by
any change of a chemical nature; -- contrasted with
mental philosophy and moral philosophy.

Natural scale (Mus.), a scale which is written without
flats or sharps.

Note: Model would be a preferable term, as less likely to

represented by the use of flats and sharps) being
equally natural with the so-called natural scale.

Natural science, the study of objects and phenomena

Natural selection (Biol.), the operation of natural laws
analogous, in their operation and results, to designed
selection in breeding plants and animals, and resulting in
the survival of the fittest; the elimination over time of
species unable to compete in specific environments with
other species more adapted to survival; -- the essential
mechanism of evolution. The principle of natural selection
is neutral with respect to the mechanism by which
inheritable changes occur in organisms (most commonly
thought to be due to mutation of genes and reorganization
of genomes), but proposes that those forms which have
become so modified as to be better adapted to the existing
environment have tended to survive and leave similarly
adapted descendants, while those less perfectly adapted
have tended to die out through lack of fitness for the
environment, thus resulting in the survival of the
fittest. See Darwinism.

Natural system (Bot. & Zool.), a classification based upon
real affinities, as shown in the structure of all parts of
the organisms, and by their embryology.

It should be borne in mind that the natural system

divisions. --Gray.

her, etc.; -- so called as being uttered in the easiest

mental philosophy and moral philosophy.

Natural scale (Mus.), a scale which is written without
flats or sharps.

Note: Model would be a preferable term, as less likely to
mislead, the so-called artificial scales (scales
represented by the use of flats and sharps) being
equally natural with the so-called natural scale.

Natural science, the study of objects and phenomena
existing in nature, especially biology, chemistry, physics
and their interdisciplinary related sciences; {natural
history}, in its broadest sense; -- used especially in
contradistinction to social science, mathematics,
philosophy, mental science or moral science.

Natural selection (Biol.), the operation of natural laws
analogous, in their operation and results, to designed
selection in breeding plants and animals, and resulting in
the survival of the fittest; the elimination over time of
species unable to compete in specific environments with
other species more adapted to survival; -- the essential
mechanism of evolution. The principle of natural selection
is neutral with respect to the mechanism by which
inheritable changes occur in organisms (most commonly
thought to be due to mutation of genes and reorganization
of genomes), but proposes that those forms which have
become so modified as to be better adapted to the existing
environment have tended to survive and leave similarly
adapted descendants, while those less perfectly adapted
have tended to die out through lack of fitness for the
environment, thus resulting in the survival of the
fittest. See Darwinism.

Natural system (Bot. & Zool.), a classification based upon
real affinities, as shown in the structure of all parts of
the organisms, and by their embryology.

It should be borne in mind that the natural system
of botany is natural only in the constitution of its
genera, tribes, orders, etc., and in its grand
divisions. --Gray.


Natural theology, or Natural religion, that part of
theological science which treats of those evidences of the
existence and attributes of the Supreme Being which are
exhibited in nature; -- distinguished from {revealed
religion}. See Quotation under Natural, a., 3.

Natural vowel, the vowel sound heard in urn, furl, sir,
her, etc.; -- so called as being uttered in the easiest
open position of the mouth organs. See Neutral vowel,
under Neutral and Guide to Pronunciation, [sect] 17.

2. A record of previous user inputs (e.g. to a
command interpreter) which can be re-entered without re-typing
them. The major improvement of the C shell (csh) over the
Bourne shell (sh) was the addition of a command history. This
was still inferior to the history mechanism on VMS which allowed
you to recall previous commands as the current input line. You
could then edit the command using cursor motion, insert and
delete. These sort of history editing facilities are available
under tcsh and GNU Emacs.

3. The history of the world was once discussed in Usenet
newsgroups news:soc.history and news:alt.history.
