From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
Tea \Tea\, n. [Chin. tsh[be], Prov. Chin. te: cf. F. th[82].]       1. The prepared leaves of a shrub, or small tree ({Thea, [or]             Camellia, Chinensis}). The shrub is a native of China, but             has been introduced to some extent into some other             countries.          Note: Teas are classed as green or black, according to their                color or appearance, the kinds being distinguished also                by various other characteristic differences, as of                taste, odor, and the like. The color, flavor, and                quality are dependent upon the treatment which the                leaves receive after being gathered. The leaves for                green tea are heated, or roasted slightly, in shallow                pans over a wood fire, almost immediately after being                gathered, after which they are rolled with the hands                upon a table, to free them from a portion of their                moisture, and to twist them, and are then quickly                dried. Those intended for black tea are spread out in                the air for some time after being gathered, and then                tossed about with the hands until they become soft and                flaccid, when they are roasted for a few minutes, and                rolled, and having then been exposed to the air for a                few hours in a soft and moist state, are finally dried                slowly over a charcoal fire. The operation of roasting                and rolling is sometimes repeated several times, until                the leaves have become of the proper color. The                principal sorts of green tea are Twankay, the poorest                kind; Hyson skin, the refuse of Hyson; Hyson, Imperial,                and Gunpowder, fine varieties; and Young Hyson, a                choice kind made from young leaves gathered early in                the spring. Those of black tea are Bohea, the poorest                kind; Congou; Oolong; Souchong, one of the finest                varieties; and Pekoe, a fine-flavored kind, made                chiefly from young spring buds. See {Bohea}, {Congou},                {Gunpowder tea}, under {Gunpowder}, {Hyson}, {Oolong},                and {Souchong}. --K. Johnson. Tomlinson.          Note: [bd]No knowledge of . . . [tea] appears to have reached                Europe till after the establishment of intercourse                between Portugal and China in 1517. The Portuguese,                however, did little towards the introduction of the                herb into Europe, and it was not till the Dutch                established themselves at Bantam early in 17th century,                that these adventurers learned from the Chinese the                habit of tea drinking, and brought it to Europe.[b8]                --Encyc.

Tea \Tea\, v. i.       To take or drink tea. [Colloq.]
From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
Tea \Tea\, n. [Chin. tsh[be], Prov. Chin. te: cf. F. th[82].]       1. The prepared leaves of a shrub, or small tree ({Thea, [or]             Camellia, Chinensis}). The shrub is a native of China, but             has been introduced to some extent into some other             countries.          Note: Teas are classed as green or black, according to their                color or appearance, the kinds being distinguished also                by various other characteristic differences, as of                taste, odor, and the like. The color, flavor, and                quality are dependent upon the treatment which the                leaves receive after being gathered. The leaves for                green tea are heated, or roasted slightly, in shallow                pans over a wood fire, almost immediately after being                gathered, after which they are rolled with the hands                upon a table, to free them from a portion of their                moisture, and to twist them, and are then quickly                dried. Those intended for black tea are spread out in                the air for some time after being gathered, and then                tossed about with the hands until they become soft and                flaccid, when they are roasted for a few minutes, and                rolled, and having then been exposed to the air for a                few hours in a soft and moist state, are finally dried                slowly over a charcoal fire. The operation of roasting                and rolling is sometimes repeated several times, until                the leaves have become of the proper color. The                principal sorts of green tea are Twankay, the poorest                kind; Hyson skin, the refuse of Hyson; Hyson, Imperial,                and Gunpowder, fine varieties; and Young Hyson, a                choice kind made from young leaves gathered early in                the spring. Those of black tea are Bohea, the poorest                kind; Congou; Oolong; Souchong, one of the finest                varieties; and Pekoe, a fine-flavored kind, made                chiefly from young spring buds. See {Bohea}, {Congou},                {Gunpowder tea}, under {Gunpowder}, {Hyson}, {Oolong},                and {Souchong}. --K. Johnson. Tomlinson.          Note: [bd]No knowledge of . . .

The language of England or of the English nation, and of             their descendants in America, India, and other countries.          Note: The English language has been variously divided into                periods by different writers.

This is the period of full inflection, and                is called Anglo-Saxon, or, by many recent writers, Old                English. The second period dates from about 1150 to                1550 (or, if four periods be recognized, from about                1150 to 1350), and is called Early English, Middle                English, or more commonly (as in the usage of this                book), Old English. During this period most of the                inflections were dropped, and there was a great                addition of French words to the language. The third                period extends from about 1350 to 1550, and is Middle                English. During this period orthography became                comparatively fixed.

From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
To \To\ ([?], emphatic or alone, [?], obscure or unemphatic),       prep. [AS. t[d3]; akin to OS. & OFries. t[d3], D. toe, G. zu,       OHG. zuo, zua, z[d3], Russ. do, Ir. & Gael. do, OL. -do, -du,       as in endo, indu, in, Gr. [?], as in [?] homeward. [fb]200.       Cf. {Too}, {Tatoo} a beat of drums.]       1. The preposition to primarily indicates approach and             arrival, motion made in the direction of a place or thing             and attaining it, access; and also, motion or tendency             without arrival; movement toward; -- opposed to {from}.             [bd]To Canterbury they wend.[b8] --Chaucer.                         Stay with us, go not to Wittenberg.   --Shak.                         So to the sylvan lodge They came, that like Pomona's                      arbor smiled.                                    --Milton.                         I'll to him again, . . . He'll tell me all his                      purpose. She stretched her arms to heaven. --Dryden.          2. Hence, it indicates motion, course, or tendency toward a             time, a state or condition, an aim, or anything capable of             being regarded as a limit to a tendency, movement, or             action; as, he is going to a trade; he is rising to wealth             and honor.          Note: Formerly, by omission of the verb denoting motion, to                sometimes followed a form of be, with the sense of at,                or in. [bd]When the sun was [gone or declined] to                rest.[b8] --Chaucer.          3. In a very general way, and with innumerable varieties of             application, to connects transitive verbs with their             remoter or indirect object, and adjectives, nouns, and             neuter or passive verbs with a following noun which limits             their action. Its sphere verges upon that of for, but it             contains less the idea of design or appropriation; as,             these remarks were addressed to a large audience; let us             keep this seat to ourselves; a substance sweet to the             taste; an event painful to the mind; duty to God and to             our parents; a dislike to spirituous liquor.                         Marks and points out each man of us to slaughter.                                                                               --B. Jonson.                         Whilst they, distilled Almost to jelly with the act                      of fear, Stand dumb and speak not to him. --Shak.                         Add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;                      and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance                      patience; and to patience godliness; and to                      godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly                      kindness charity.                              --2 Pet. i.                                                                               5,6,7.                         I have a king's oath to the contrary. --Shak.                         Numbers were crowded to death.            --Clarendon.                         Fate and the dooming gods are deaf to tears.                                                                               --Dryden.                         Go, buckle to the law.                        --Dryden.          4. As sign of the infinitive, to had originally the use of             last defined, governing the infinitive as a verbal noun,             and connecting it as indirect object with a preceding verb             or adjective; thus, ready to go, i.e., ready unto going;             good to eat, i.e., good for eating; I do my utmost to lead             my life pleasantly. But it has come to be the almost             constant prefix to the infinitive, even in situations             where it has no prepositional meaning, as where the             infinitive is direct object or subject; thus, I love to             learn, i.e., I love learning; to die for one's country is             noble, i.e., the dying for one's country. Where the             infinitive denotes the design or purpose, good usage             formerly allowed the prefixing of for to the to; as, what             went ye out for see? (--Matt. xi. 8).                         Then longen folk to go on pilgrimages, And palmers                      for to seeken strange stranders.         --Chaucer.          Note: Such usage is now obsolete or illiterate. In colloquial                usage, to often stands for, and supplies, an infinitive                already mentioned; thus, he commands me to go with him,                but I do not wish to.          5. In many phrases, and in connection with many other words,             to has a pregnant meaning, or is used elliptically. Thus,             it denotes or implies:             (a) Extent; limit; degree of comprehension; inclusion as                   far as; as, they met us to the number of three                   hundred.                               We ready are to try our fortunes To the last                            man.                                             --Shak.                               Few of the Esquimaux can count to ten. --Quant.                                                                               Rev.             (b) Effect; end; consequence; as, the prince was flattered                   to his ruin; he engaged in a war to his cost; violent                   factions exist to the prejudice of the state.             (c) Apposition; connection; antithesis; opposition; as,                   they engaged hand to hand.                               Now we see through a glass, darkly; but then                            face to face.                              --1 Cor. xiii.                                                                               12.             (d) Accord; adaptation; as, an occupation to his taste;                   she has a husband to her mind.                               He to God's image, she to his was made.                                                                               --Dryden.             (e) Comparison; as, three is to nine as nine is to                   twenty-seven; it is ten to one that you will offend                   him.                               All that they did was piety to this. --B.                                                                               Jonson.             (f) Addition; union; accumulation.                               Wisdom he has, and to his wisdom, courage.                                                                               --Denham.             (g) Accompaniment; as, she sang to his guitar; they danced                   to the music of a piano.                               Anon they move In perfect phalanx to the Dorian                            mood Of flutes and soft recorders. --Milton.             (h) Character; condition of being; purpose subserved or                   office filled. [In this sense archaic] [bd]I have a                   king here to my flatterer.[b8] --Shak.                               Made his masters and others . . . to consider                            him to a little wonder.               --Walton.          Note: To in to-day, to-night, and to-morrow has the sense or                force of for or on; for, or on, (this) day, for, or on,                (this) night, for, or on, (the) morrow. To-day,                to-night, to-morrow may be considered as compounds, and                usually as adverbs; but they are sometimes used as                nouns; as, to-day is ours.                            To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow; Creeps                         in this petty pace from day to day. --Shak.          {To and again}, to and fro. [R.]          {To and fro}, forward and back. In this phrase, to is             adverbial.                         There was great showing both to and fro. --Chaucer.          {To-and-fro}, a pacing backward and forward; as, to commence             a to-and-fro. --Tennyson.          {To the face}, in front of; in behind; hence, in the presence             of.          {To wit}, to know; namely. See {Wit}, v. i.          Note: To, without an object expressed, is used adverbially;                as, put to the door, i. e., put the door to its frame,                close it; and in the nautical expressions, to heave to,                to come to, meaning to a certain position. To, like on,                is sometimes used as a command, forward, set to.                [bd]To, Achilles! to, Ajax! to![b8] --Shak.

Note: The constable of France was the first officer of the                crown, and had the chief command of the army. It was                also his duty to regulate all matters of chivalry. The                office was suppressed in 1627. The constable, or lord                high constable, of England, was one of the highest                officers of the crown, commander in chief of the                forces, and keeper of the peace of the nation. He also                had judicial cognizance of many important matters. The                office was as early as the Conquest, but has been                disused (except on great and solemn occasions), since                the attainder of Stafford, duke of Buckingham, in the                reign of Henry VIII.          2. (Law) An officer of the peace having power as a             conservator of the public peace, and bound to execute the             warrants of judicial officers. --Bouvier.          Note: In England, at the present time, the constable is a                conservator of the peace within his district, and is                also charged by various statutes with other duties,                such as serving summons, precepts, warrants, etc. In                the United States, constables are town or city officers                of the peace, with powers similar to those of the                constables of England. In addition to their duties as                conservators of the peace, they are invested with                others by statute, such as to execute civil as well as                criminal process in certain cases, to attend courts,                keep juries, etc. In some cities, there are officers                called {high constables}, who act as chiefs of the                constabulary or police force. In other cities the title                of constable, as well as the office, is merged in that                of the police officer.          {High constable}, a constable having certain duties and             powers within a hundred. [Eng.]          {Petty constable}, a conservator of the peace within a parish             or tithing; a tithingman. [Eng.]          {Special constable}, a person appointed to act as constable             of special occasions.          {To} {overrun, [or] outrun}, {the constable}, to spend more             than one's income; to get into debt.

To \To\ ([?], emphatic or alone, [?], obscure or unemphatic),       prep. [AS. t[d3]; akin to OS. & OFries. t[d3], D. toe, G. zu,       OHG. zuo, zua, z[d3], Russ. do, Ir. & Gael. do, OL. -do, -du,       as in endo, indu, in, Gr. [?], as in [?] homeward. [fb]200.       Cf. {Too}, {Tatoo} a beat of drums.]       1. The preposition to primarily indicates approach and             arrival, motion made in the direction of a place or thing             and attaining it, access; and also, motion or tendency             without arrival; movement toward; -- opposed to {from}.             [bd]To Canterbury they wend.[b8] --Chaucer.                         Stay with us, go not to Wittenberg.   --Shak.                         So to the sylvan lodge They came, that like Pomona's                      arbor smiled.                                    --Milton.                         I'll to him again, . . . He'll tell me all his                      purpose. She stretched her arms to heaven. --Dryden.          2. Hence, it indicates motion, course, or tendency toward a             time, a state or condition, an aim, or anything capable of             being regarded as a limit to a tendency, movement, or             action; as, he is going to a trade; he is rising to wealth             and honor.          Note: Formerly, by omission of the verb denoting motion, to                sometimes followed a form of be, with the sense of at,                or in. [bd]When the sun was [gone or declined] to                rest.[b8] --Chaucer.          3. In a very general way, and with innumerable varieties of             application, to connects transitive verbs with their             remoter or indirect object, and adjectives, nouns, and             neuter or passive verbs with a following noun which limits             their action. Its sphere verges upon that of for, but it             contains less the idea of design or appropriation; as,             these remarks were addressed to a large audience; let us             keep this seat to ourselves; a substance sweet to the             taste; an event painful to the mind; duty to God and to             our parents; a dislike to spirituous liquor.                         Marks and points out each man of us to slaughter.                                                                               --B.

As sign of the infinitive, to had originally the use of             last defined, governing the infinitive as a verbal noun,             and connecting it as indirect object with a preceding verb             or adjective; thus, ready to go, i.e., ready unto going;             good to eat, i.e., good for eating; I do my utmost to lead             my life pleasantly. But it has come to be the almost             constant prefix to the infinitive, even in situations             where it has no prepositional meaning, as where the             infinitive is direct object or subject; thus, I love to             learn, i.e., I love learning; to die for one's country is             noble, i.e., the dying for one's country. Where the             infinitive denotes the design or purpose, good usage             formerly allowed the prefixing of for to the to; as, what             went ye out for see? (--Matt. xi. 8).                         Then longen folk to go on pilgrimages, And palmers                      for to seeken strange stranders.         --Chaucer.          Note: Such usage is now obsolete or illiterate. In colloquial                usage, to often stands for, and supplies, an infinitive                already mentioned; thus, he commands me to go with him,                but I do not wish to.          5. In many phrases, and in connection with many other words,             to has a pregnant meaning, or is used elliptically. Thus,             it denotes or implies:             (a) Extent; limit; degree of comprehension; inclusion as                   far as; as, they met us to the number of three                   hundred.                               We ready are to try our fortunes To the last                            man.                                             --Shak.                               Few of the Esquimaux can count to ten. --Quant.                                                                               Rev.             (b) Effect; end; consequence; as, the prince was flattered                   to his ruin; he engaged in a war to his cost; violent                   factions exist to the prejudice of the state.             (c) Apposition; connection; antithesis; opposition; as,                   they engaged hand to hand.                               Now we see through a glass, darkly; but then                            face to face.                              --1 Cor. xiii.                                                                               12.             (d) Accord; adaptation; as, an occupation to his taste;                   she has a husband to her mind.                               He to God's image, she to his was made.                                                                               --Dryden.             (e) Comparison; as, three is to nine as nine is to                   twenty-seven; it is ten to one that you will offend                   him.                               All that they did was piety to this. --B.                                                                               Jonson.             (f) Addition; union; accumulation.                               Wisdom he has, and to his wisdom, courage.                                                                               --Denham.             (g) Accompaniment; as, she sang to his guitar; they danced                   to the music of a piano.                               Anon they move In perfect phalanx to the Dorian                            mood Of flutes and soft recorders. --Milton.             (h) Character; condition of being; purpose subserved or                   office filled.

To-day,                to-night, to-morrow may be considered as compounds, and                usually as adverbs; but they are sometimes used as                nouns; as, to-day is ours.                            To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow; Creeps                         in this petty pace from day to day. --Shak.          {To and again}, to and fro.

See {Wit}, v. i.          Note: To, without an object expressed, is used adverbially;                as, put to the door, i. e., put the door to its frame,                close it; and in the nautical expressions, to heave to,                to come to, meaning to a certain position.

From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
Note: The constable of France was the first officer of the                crown, and had the chief command of the army. It was                also his duty to regulate all matters of chivalry. The                office was suppressed in 1627. The constable, or lord                high constable, of England, was one of the highest                officers of the crown, commander in chief of the                forces, and keeper of the peace of the nation. He also                had judicial cognizance of many important matters. The                office was as early as the Conquest, but has been                disused (except on great and solemn occasions), since                the attainder of Stafford, duke of Buckingham, in the                reign of Henry VIII.          2.

In other cities the title                of constable, as well as the office, is merged in that                of the police officer.          {High constable}, a constable having certain duties and             powers within a hundred.

Jonson.                         Whilst they, distilled Almost to jelly with the act                      of fear, Stand dumb and speak not to him. --Shak.                         Add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;                      and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance                      patience; and to patience godliness; and to                      godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly                      kindness charity.                              --2 Pet. i.                                                                               5,6,7.                         I have a king's oath to the contrary. --Shak.                         Numbers were crowded to death.            --Clarendon.                         Fate and the dooming gods are deaf to tears.                                                                               --Dryden.                         Go, buckle to the law.                        --Dryden.          4. As sign of the infinitive, to had originally the use of             last defined, governing the infinitive as a verbal noun,             and connecting it as indirect object with a preceding verb             or adjective; thus, ready to go, i.e., ready unto going;             good to eat, i.e., good for eating; I do my utmost to lead             my life pleasantly. But it has come to be the almost             constant prefix to the infinitive, even in situations             where it has no prepositional meaning, as where the             infinitive is direct object or subject; thus, I love to             learn, i.e., I love learning; to die for one's country is             noble, i.e., the dying for one's country. Where the             infinitive denotes the design or purpose, good usage             formerly allowed the prefixing of for to the to; as, what             went ye out for see? (--Matt. xi. 8).                         Then longen folk to go on pilgrimages, And palmers                      for to seeken strange stranders.         --Chaucer.          Note: Such usage is now obsolete or illiterate. In colloquial                usage, to often stands for, and supplies, an infinitive                already mentioned; thus, he commands me to go with him,                but I do not wish to.          5. In many phrases, and in connection with many other words,             to has a pregnant meaning, or is used elliptically. Thus,             it denotes or implies:             (a) Extent; limit; degree of comprehension; inclusion as                   far as; as, they met us to the number of three                   hundred.                               We ready are to try our fortunes To the last                            man.                                             --Shak.                               Few of the Esquimaux can count to ten. --Quant.                                                                               Rev.             (b) Effect; end; consequence; as, the prince was flattered                   to his ruin; he engaged in a war to his cost; violent                   factions exist to the prejudice of the state.             (c) Apposition; connection; antithesis; opposition; as,                   they engaged hand to hand.                               Now we see through a glass, darkly; but then                            face to face.                              --1 Cor. xiii.                                                                               12.             (d) Accord; adaptation; as, an occupation to his taste;                   she has a husband to her mind.                               He to God's image, she to his was made.                                                                               --Dryden.             (e) Comparison; as, three is to nine as nine is to                   twenty-seven; it is ten to one that you will offend                   him.                               All that they did was piety to this. --B.                                                                               Jonson.             (f) Addition; union; accumulation.                               Wisdom he has, and to his wisdom, courage.                                                                               --Denham.             (g) Accompaniment; as, she sang to his guitar; they danced                   to the music of a piano.                               Anon they move In perfect phalanx to the Dorian                            mood Of flutes and soft recorders. --Milton.             (h) Character; condition of being; purpose subserved or                   office filled. [In this sense archaic] [bd]I have a                   king here to my flatterer.[b8] --Shak.                               Made his masters and others . . . to consider                            him to a little wonder.               --Walton.          Note: To in to-day, to-night, and to-morrow has the sense or                force of for or on; for, or on, (this) day, for, or on,                (this) night, for, or on, (the) morrow. To-day,                to-night, to-morrow may be considered as compounds, and                usually as adverbs; but they are sometimes used as                nouns; as, to-day is ours.                            To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow; Creeps                         in this petty pace from day to day. --Shak.          {To and again}, to and fro. [R.]          {To and fro}, forward and back. In this phrase, to is             adverbial.                         There was great showing both to and fro. --Chaucer.          {To-and-fro}, a pacing backward and forward; as, to commence             a to-and-fro. --Tennyson.          {To the face}, in front of; in behind; hence, in the presence             of.          {To wit}, to know; namely. See {Wit}, v. i.          Note: To, without an object expressed, is used adverbially;                as, put to the door, i. e., put the door to its frame,                close it; and in the nautical expressions, to heave to,                to come to, meaning to a certain position. To, like on,                is sometimes used as a command, forward, set to.                [bd]To, Achilles! to, Ajax! to![b8] --Shak.

From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
Note: The constable of France was the first officer of the                crown, and had the chief command of the army. It was                also his duty to regulate all matters of chivalry. The                office was suppressed in 1627. The constable, or lord                high constable, of England, was one of the highest                officers of the crown, commander in chief of the                forces, and keeper of the peace of the nation. He also                had judicial cognizance of many important matters. The                office was as early as the Conquest, but has been                disused (except on great and solemn occasions), since                the attainder of Stafford, duke of Buckingham, in the                reign of Henry VIII.          2. (Law) An officer of the peace having power as a             conservator of the public peace, and bound to execute the             warrants of judicial officers. --Bouvier.          Note: In England, at the present time, the constable is a                conservator of the peace within his district, and is                also charged by various statutes with other duties,                such as serving summons, precepts, warrants, etc. In                the United States, constables are town or city officers                of the peace, with powers similar to those of the                constables of England. In addition to their duties as                conservators of the peace, they are invested with                others by statute, such as to execute civil as well as                criminal process in certain cases, to attend courts,                keep juries, etc. In some cities, there are officers                called {high constables}, who act as chiefs of the                constabulary or police force. In other cities the title                of constable, as well as the office, is merged in that                of the police officer.          {High constable}, a constable having certain duties and             powers within a hundred. [Eng.]          {Petty constable}, a conservator of the peace within a parish             or tithing; a tithingman. [Eng.]          {Special constable}, a person appointed to act as constable             of special occasions.          {To} {overrun, [or] outrun}, {the constable}, to spend more             than one's income; to get into debt.

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
T /T/   1. [from LISP terminology for `true'] Yes.   Used in    reply to a question (particularly one asked using {The -P    convention}).   In LISP, the constant T means `true', among other    things.   Some Lisp hackers use `T' and `NIL' instead of `Yes' and    `No' almost reflexively.   This sometimes causes misunderstandings.    When a waiter or flight attendant asks whether a hacker wants    coffee, he may absently respond `T', meaning that he wants coffee;    but of course he will be brought a cup of tea instead.   Fortunately,    most hackers (particularly those who frequent Chinese restaurants)    like tea at least as well as coffee -- so it is not that big a    problem.   2. See {time T} (also {since time T equals minus    infinity}).   3. [techspeak] In transaction-processing circles, an    abbreviation for the noun `transaction'.   4. [Purdue] Alternate    spelling of {tee}.   5. A dialect of {LISP} developed at Yale. (There    is an intended allusion to NIL, "New Implementation of Lisp",    another dialect of Lisp developed for the {VAX})
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
tee n.,vt.   [Purdue] A carbon copy of an electronic    transmission.   "Oh, you're sending him the {bits} to that?   Slap on    a tee for me."   From the Unix command `tee(1)', itself named after a    pipe fitting (see {plumbing}).   Can also mean `save one for me', as    in "Tee a slice for me!"   Also spelled `T'.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
toy n.   A computer system; always used with qualifiers.   1.    `nice toy': One that supports the speaker's hacking style    adequately.   2. `just a toy': A machine that yields insufficient    {computron}s for the speaker's preferred uses.   This is not    condemnatory, as is {bitty box}; toys can at least be fun.   It is    also strongly conditioned by one's expectations; Cray XMP users    sometimes consider the Cray-1 a `toy', and certainly all RISC boxes    and mainframes are toys by their standards.   See also {Get a real    computer!}.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
tty /T-T-Y/, /tit'ee/ n.   The latter pronunciation was    primarily ITS, but some Unix people say it this way as well; this    pronunciation is _not_ considered to have sexual undertones. 1. A    terminal of the teletype variety, characterized by a noisy    mechanical printer, a very limited character set, and poor print    quality.   Usage: antiquated (like the TTYs themselves).   See also    {bit-paired keyboard}.   2. [especially Unix] Any terminal at all;    sometimes used to refer to the particular terminal controlling a    given job.   3. [Unix] Any serial port, whether or not the device    connected to it is a terminal; so called because under Unix such    devices have names of the form tty*.   Ambiguity between senses 2 and    3 is common but seldom bothersome.

T1          An {AT&T} term for a {digital carrier}       facility used to transmit a {DS1} formatted digital signal at       1.544 megabits per second.          T1 transmission uses a bipolar {Return To Zero} {alternate       mark inversion} line coding scheme to keep the DC carrier       component from saturating the line.          Although some consider T1 signaling obsolete, much equipment       operates at the "T1 rate" and such signals are either       combined for transmission via faster circuits, or       demultiplexed into 64 kilobit per second circuits for       distribution to individual subscribers.          T1 signals can be transported on {unshielded twisted pair}       telephone lines.   The transmitted signal consists of pips of a       few hundred nanoseconds width, each inverted with respect to       the one preceding.   At the sending end the signal is 1 volt,       and as received, greater than 0.01 volts.   This requires       repeaters about every 6000 feet.          The information is contained in the timing of the signals, not       the polarity.   When a long sequence of bits in the transmitted       information would cause no pip to be sent, "{bit stuffing}" is       used so the receiving apparatus will not lose track of the       sending clock.          A T1 circuit requires two twisted pair lines, one for each       direction.   Some newer equipment uses the two lines at half       the T1 rate and in {full-duplex} mode; the sent and received       signals are separated at each end by components collectively       called a "hybrid".   Although this technique requires more       sophisticated equipment and lowers the line length, an       advantage is that half the sent and half the received       information is mixed on any one line, making low-tech wiretaps       less a threat.          See also {Integrated Services Digital Network}.          (1994-11-23)
