T
(gcide) | T \T\ (t[=e]),
the twentieth letter of the English alphabet, is a nonvocal
consonant. With the letter h it forms the digraph th, which
has two distinct sounds, as in thin, then. See Guide to
Pronunciation, [sect][sect]262-264, and also [sect][sect]153,
156, 169, 172, 176, 178-180.
[1913 Webster] The letter derives its name and form from the
Latin, the form of the Latin letter being further derived
through the Greek from the Ph[oe]nician. The ultimate origin
is probably Egyptian. It is etymologically most nearly
related to d, s, th; as in tug, duke; two, dual, L. duo;
resin, L. resina, Gr. "rhti`nh, tent, tense, a., tenuous,
thin; nostril, thrill. See D, S.

T Lisp
1. True. A Lisp compiler by Johnathan A. Rees in 1982 at
Yale University. T has static scope and is a
near-superset of Scheme. Unix source is available. T is
written in itself and compiles to efficient native code. Used
as the basis for the Yale Haskell system. Maintained by
David Kranz .
(ftp://ftp.ai.mit.edu/pub/systems/t3.1).
A multiprocessing version of T is available
(ftp://masala.lcs.mit.edu/pub/mult).
Runs on Decstation, SPARC, Sun-3, Vax under Unix,
Encore, HP, Apollo, Macintosh under A/UX.

["The T Manual", Johnathan A. Rees et
al, Yale U, 1984].
2. A functional language.
["T: A Simple Reduction Language Based on Combinatory Term
Rewriting", Ida et al, Proc of Prog Future Generation
Computers, 1988].
3. (lower case) The Lisp atom used to represent "true",
among other things. "false" is represented using the same
atom as an empty list, nil. This overloading of the basic
constants of the language helps to make Lisp {write-only
code}.
4. In transaction-processing circles, an abbreviation for
"transaction".
5. (Purdue) An alternative spelling of "tee".

(jargon) | T
/T/
1. [from LISP terminology for ‘true’] Yes. Used in reply to a question
(particularly one asked using The -P convention). In LISP, the constant T
means ‘true’, among other things. Some Lisp hackers use ‘T’ and ‘NIL’
instead of ‘Yes’ and ‘No’ almost reflexively. This sometimes causes
misunderstandings. When a waiter or flight attendant asks whether a hacker
wants coffee, he may absently respond ‘T’, meaning that he wants coffee;
but of course he will be brought a cup of tea instead. Fortunately, most
hackers (particularly those who frequent Chinese restaurants) like tea at
least as well as coffee — so it is not that big a problem.
2. See time T (also since time T equals minus infinity).
3. [techspeak] In transaction-processing circles, an abbreviation for the
noun ‘transaction’.
4. [Purdue] Alternate spelling of tee.
5. A dialect of LISP developed at Yale. (There is an intended allusion to
NIL, “New Implementation of Lisp”, another dialect of Lisp developed for
the VAX)

t
(devil) | T, the twentieth letter of the English alphabet, was by the Greeks
absurdly called _tau_. In the alphabet whence ours comes it had the
form of the rude corkscrew of the period, and when it stood alone
(which was more than the Phoenicians could always do) signified
_Tallegal_, translated by the learned Dr. Brownrigg, "tanglefoot."
