Thread Name: BS: Word Mash-ups?
Subject: RE: BS: Word Mash-ups?
Hi, Wysiwig. They are not mash-ups, but we have coined new words to use at the computer.

bigify = maximize
smallify = minimize
X that = close the current operation

The DH used to say things like "Right double click on the Submit button in the lower central 1/3 of the left margin." I've cured him of that. Now he picks up a pencil and touches the desired feature with the eraser end.

Needless to say, this is for features which are hard to locate on a cluttered screen.
