Got a computer related acronym that you're puzzled about?

  [The Library doesn't have a Reference Desk anymore, but there are  acronym dictionaries in Inform; do an Inform search for acronym. --Ed.]

You can find out what it means with Gopher! From the ADN Gopher main menu:

Select:     The Library
then:       Reference Desk
then:       Acronym dictionary
The acronym dictionary is a keyword search; type the acronym you're interested in by the "Enter keyword" prompt and press Enter. It's located in the United Kingdom, so it might take a little while to get a response, or you might have to try again later.

There are a number of other useful items in the Reference Desk menu, and we're always in the market for more. If you've run across other items which would be appropriate, please let us know.
