Fast ATA-2
(ATA-2, Enhanced Integrated Drive

standard from X3T10 (document 948D rev 3) which extends
the Advanced Technology Attachment interface while
maintaining compatibility with current IBM PC BIOS
designs.
ATA-2 provides for faster data rates, 32-bit transactions and
(in some drives) DMA. Optional support for power saving
modes and removable devices is also in the standard.
ATA-2 was developed by Western Digital as "Enhanced
Integrated Drive Electronics" (EIDE) around 1994.
Marketroids call it "Fast ATA" or "Fast ATA-2".
ATA-2 was followed by ATA-3 and ATA-4 ("Ultra DMA").

be added. It has first-class environments, dynamic-wind,
fluid-let, macros, autoloading and a dump. It
provides interfaces to Xlib, Xt and various widget sets;
dynamic loading of extensions and object files; almost all
artificial limitations removed; generational/{incremental

extensional
(foldoc) | extensional
Extensional properties, e.g. extensional equality, relate to
the "black-box" behaviour of an object, i.e. how its output
depends on its input. The opposite is intensional which
concerns how the object is implemented.

extensional equality

extensionality
(Or extensionality). Functions, f and g are extensionally
equal if and only if
f x = g x for all x.
where "=" means both expressions fail to terminate (under some
given reduction strategy) or they both terminate with the
same basic value.
Two functions may be extensionally equal but not
inter-convertible (neither is reducible to the other). E.g.
\ x . x+x and \ x . 2*x. See also {observational
equivalence}, referential transparency.

file extension
(foldoc) | filename extension
file extension
The portion of a filename, following the
final point, which indicates the kind of data stored in the
file - the file type.
Many operating systems use filename extensions, e.g. Unix,
VMS, MS-DOS, Microsoft Windows. They are usually from
one to three letters (some sad old OSes support no more than
three). Examples include "c" for C source code, "ps" for
PostScript, "txt" for arbitrary text.
NEXTSTEP and its descendants also use extensions on
directories for a similar purpose.
Apart from informing the user what type of content the file
holds, filename extensions are typically used to decide which
program to launch when a file is "run", e.g. by
double-clicking it in a GUI file browser. They are also
used by Unix's make to determine how to build one kind of
file from another.

multimedia and communications data types.
MMX-enhanced processors are due to be released early in 1997.
They will be fully compatible with previous Intel processors
and software but software will only benefit if it is written
to use the new instructions. They can handle many common
multimedia operations, such as digital signal processing,
normally handled by a separate sound card or video card.
