(gcide) | clone \clone\ v. t.
1. (Biol.) to make a clone from; to make identical copies of
an organism by a non-sexual process of reproduction.
[WordNet 1.5]
2. (Microbiol.) to grow colonies of a microorganism by
spreading a suspension of the microorganism onto a solid
growth medium (such as in a Petri dish), at a
concentration such that individual colonies will grow from
single cells sufficiently well separated from other
colonies so that pure cultures derived from a single
organism can be isolated.
[WordNet 1.5]
3. (Biochem.) to make large quantities of a segment of DNA by
inserting it, using biochemical techniques, into the DNA
of a microorganism, and growing that microorganism in
large numbers; as, to clone the gene for growth hormone.

(gcide) | clone \clone\ (kl[=o]n), n.

Syn: clon.
[WordNet 1.5]
2. (Biol.) an individual organism containing a genetic
complement identical to that of another organism, produced
by using the genetic material from the second animal in a

clone
(foldoc) | clone
1. An exact copy of a product, made legally or
illegally, from documentation or by reverse engineering,
and usually cheaper.
E.g. "PC clone": a PC-BUS/ISA, EISA, VESA, or PCI
compatible x86-based microcomputer (this use is sometimes
misspelled "klone" or "PClone"). These invariably have much more
bang per buck than the IB PCM they resemble.
E.g. "Unix clone": An operating system designed to deliver a
Unix-like environment without Unix licence fees or with
additional "mission-critical" features such as support for
real-time programming.
2. A clonebot.

clone
(jargon) | clone
n.
1. An exact duplicate: “Our product is a clone of their product.” Implies a
legal reimplementation from documentation or by reverse-engineering. Also
connotes lower price.
2. A shoddy, spurious copy: “Their product is a clone of our product.”
3. A blatant ripoff, most likely violating copyright, patent, or trade
secret protections: “Your product is a clone of my product.” This use
implies legal action is pending.
4. [obs] PC clone: a PC-BUS/ISA/EISA/PCI-compatible 80x86-based
microcomputer (this use is sometimes spelled klone or PClone). These
invariably have much more bang for the buck than the IBM archetypes they
resemble. This term fell out of use in the 1990s; the class of machines it
describes are now simply PCs or Intel machines.
5. [obs.] In the construction Unix clone: An OS designed to deliver a
Unix-lookalike environment without Unix license fees, or with additional
‘mission-critical’ features such as support for real-time programming. {
Linux} and the free BSDs killed off this product category and the term with
it.
6. v. To make an exact copy of something. “Let me clone that” might mean “I
want to borrow that paper so I can make a photocopy” or “Let me get a copy
of that file before you mung it”.

Anticyclonic storm (Meteor.), a storm characterized by a
central area of high atmospheric pressure, and having a
system of winds blowing spirally outward in a direction
contrary to that cyclonic storms. It is attended by low
temperature, dry air, infrequent precipitation, and often
by clear sky. Called also high-area storm,
anticyclone. When attended by high winds, snow, and
freezing temperatures such storms have various local
names, as blizzard, wet norther, purga, buran,
etc.
Cyclonic storm. (Meteor.) A cyclone, or low-area storm. See
Cyclone, above.
Magnetic storm. See under Magnetic.
Storm-and-stress period [a translation of G. sturm und

agitation and revolutionary development in Germany under

commotion of the elements by wind, etc., but not
necessarily implying the fall of anything from the

wind a storm is a departure from the true sense of the
word. A tempest is a sudden and violent storm, such as
those common on the coast of Italy, where the term
originated, and is usually attended by a heavy rain,
with lightning and thunder.

Cyclone
(gcide) | Cyclone \Cy"clone\ (s?"kl?n), n. [Gr.????? moving in a circle,
p. pr. of ?????, fr. ky`klos circle.]
1. (Meteor.) A violent storm, often of vast extent,
characterized by high winds rotating about a calm center
of low atmospheric pressure. This center moves onward,
often with a velocity of twenty or thirty miles an hour.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The atmospheric disturbance usually accompanying a
cyclone, marked by an onward moving area of high
pressure, is called an anticyclone.
[1913 Webster]
2. (Meteor.) In general, a condition of the atmosphere
characterized by a central area of pressure much lower
than that of surrounding areas, and a system of winds
blowing inward and around (clockwise in the southern
hemisphere and counter-clockwise in the northern); --
called also a low-area storm. It is attended by high
temperature, moist air, abundant precipitation, and
clouded sky. The term includes the hurricane, typhoon, and
tropical storms; it should not be applied to the moderate
disturbances attending ordinary areas of low pressure nor
to tornadoes, waterspouts, or "twisters," in which the
vertical motion is more important than the horizontal.

clone-and-hack coding
(foldoc) | case and paste
clone-and-hack coding
(From "cut and paste") The addition of a new
feature to an existing system by selecting the code from an
existing feature and pasting it in with minor changes. This
usually results in gross violation of the fundamental
programming tenet, Don't Repeat Yourself.
Common in telephony circles because most operations in a
telephone switch are selected using "case" statements. Leads
to software bloat.
In some circles of Emacs users this is called "programming
by Meta-W", because Meta-W is the Emacs command for copying a
block of text to a kill buffer in preparation to pasting it
in elsewhere. The term is condescending, implying that the
programmer is acting mindlessly rather than thinking carefully
about what is required to integrate the code for two similar
cases.
At DEC, this is sometimes called "clone-and-hack" coding.

clonebot
(foldoc) | clonebot
(Or "clone") A bot meant to replicate itself en masse

Compare ghost.
