   Icon
  
      A descendant of {SNOBOL4} with {Pascal}-like
      syntax, produced by Griswold in the 1970's.   Icon is a
      general-purpose language with special features for string
      scanning.   It has dynamic types: records, sets, lists,
      strings, tables.   If has some {object oriented} features but
      no {modules} or {exception}s.   It has a primitive {Unix}
      interface.
  
      The central theme of Icon is the generator: when an expression
      is evaluated it may be suspended and later resumed, producing
      a result sequence of values until it fails.   Resumption takes
      place implicitly in two contexts: iteration which is
      syntactically loop-like ('every-do'), and goal-directed
      evaluation in which a conditional expression automatically
      attempts to produce at least one result.   Expressions that
      fail are used in lieu of Booleans.   Data {backtracking} is
      supported by a reversible {assignment}.   Icon also has
      {co-expression}s, which can be explicitly resumed at any time.
  
      Version 8.8 by Ralph Griswold includes
      an {interpreter}, a compiler (for some {platform}s) and a
      library (v8.8).   Icon has been ported to {Amiga}, {Atari},
      {CMS}, {Macintosh}, {Macintosh/MPW}, {MS-DOS}, {MVS}, {OS/2},

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   icon
  
      A small picture intended to represent something (a
      file, directory, or action) in a {graphical user interface}.
      When an icon is clicked on, some action is performed such as
      opening a directory or aborting a file transfer.
  
      Icons are usually stored as {bitmap} images.   {Microsoft
      Windows} uses a special bitmap format with file name extension
      ".ico" as well as embedding icons in executable (".exe") and
      {Dynamically Linked Library} (DLL) files.
  
      The term originates from {Alan Kay}'s theory for designing
      interfaces which was primarily based on the work of Jerome
      Bruner.   Bruner's second developmental stage, iconic, uses a
      system of representation that depends on visual or other
      sensory organization and upon the use of summarising images.
