Transliteration of Greek verb "to throw around" or "to net". Advantages: The name is distinctive. Conflicts with nothing so far as I know. Is device-independent. In keeping with Unix tradition, the name is meaningful, but only to those who read this submission or know someone who has read it. Your immediate superior will have to ask YOU what it refers to, thereby demonstrating your expertise, increasing your value to him or her, etc. Tom ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
