wimp environment (jargon) | WIMP environment
n.
[acronym: ‘Window, Icon, Menu, Pointing device (or Pull-down menu)’] A
graphical-user-interface environment such as X or the Macintosh
interface, esp. as described by a hacker who prefers command-line
interfaces for their superior flexibility and extensibility. However, it is
also used without negative connotations; one must pay attention to voice
tone and other signals to interpret correctly. See menuitis, {
user-obsequious}.
