for the rest of us adj.   [from the Mac slogan "The computer for    the rest of us"] 1. Used to describe a {spiffy} product whose    affordability shames other comparable products, or (more often) used    sarcastically to describe {spiffy} but very overpriced products.   2.    Describes a program with a limited interface, deliberately limited    capabilities, non-orthogonality, inability to compose primitives, or    any other limitation designed to not `confuse' a naive user.   This    places an upper bound on how far that user can go before the program    begins to get in the way of the task instead of helping accomplish    it.   Used in reference to Macintosh software which doesn't provide    obvious capabilities because it is thought that the poor lusers    might not be able to handle them.   Becomes `the rest of _them_' when       used in third-party reference; thus, "Yes, it is an attractive    program, but it's designed for The Rest Of Them" means a program    that superficially looks neat but has no depth beyond the surface    flash.   See also {WIMP environment}, {Macintrash}, {point-and-drool    interface}, {user-friendly}.

fritterware n.   An excess of capability that serves no    productive end.   The canonical example is font-diddling software on    the Mac (see {macdink}); the term describes anything that eats huge    amounts of time for quite marginal gains in function but seduces    people into using it anyway.   See also {window shopping}.

for The Rest Of Us          (From the {Macintosh} slogan "The computer for the       rest of us") 1. Used to describe a {spiffy} product whose       affordability shames other comparable products, or (more       often) used sarcastically to describe {spiffy} but very       overpriced products.          2. Describes a program with a limited interface, deliberately       limited capabilities, non-{orthogonal}ity, inability to       compose primitives, or any other limitation designed to not       "confuse" a naïve user.   This places an upper bound on how far       that user can go before the program begins to get in the way       of the task instead of helping accomplish it.          Used in reference to {Macintosh} software which doesn't       provide obvious capabilities because it is thought that the       poor {luser} might not be able to handle them.   Becomes "the       rest of *them*" when used in third-party reference; thus,       "Yes, it is an attractive program, but it's designed for The       Rest Of Them" means a program that superficially looks neat       but has no depth beyond the surface flash.          See also {point-and-drool interface}, {user-friendly}.          [{Jargon File}]          (2000-08-08)

Fortran          (Formula Translation) The first and, for a long       time, the most widely used programming language for numerical       and scientific applications.   The original versions lacked       {recursive} procedures and {block structure} and had a       line-oriented {syntax} in which certain columns had special       significance.          There have been a great many versions.          The name is often written "FORTRAN", harking back to the days       before computers were taught about lower case, but {ANSI}       decreed, in about 1985 via the ANSI {FORTRAN} Technical       Committee {TC}, that it should be "Fortran".          See also: {Fortrash}.          [Was {Fortran I} the first version?]          (2000-07-07)

FORTRANSIT          Fortran Internal Translator.          A subset of {Fortran} translated into {IT} on the {IBM 650}.       It was in use in the late 1950s and early 1960s.          Compilation took place in several steps (using {punched card}s       as the only input/output media).   FORTRANSIT was converted to       IT {Internal Translator} which was converted into {SOAP} and       thence to {machine code}.          In the SOAP -> machine code step, the user had to include card       decks for all the subroutines used in his FORTRANSIT program       (including e.g. square root, sine, and even basic {floating       point} routines).          [Sammet 1969, p. 141].          (1995-03-30)

fritterware          An excess of capability that serves no productive end.   The       canonical example is font-diddling software on the Mac (see       {macdink}); the term describes anything that eats huge amounts       of time for quite marginal gains in function but seduces       people into using it anyway.   See also {window shopping}.          [{Jargon File}]
