From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
wizard n.   1. Transitively, a person who knows how a complex    piece of software or hardware works (that is, who {grok}s it); esp.    someone who can find and fix bugs quickly in an emergency.   Someone    is a {hacker} if he or she has general hacking ability, but is a    wizard with respect to something only if he or she has specific    detailed knowledge of that thing.   A good hacker could become a    wizard for something given the time to study it.   2. The term    `wizard' is also used intransitively of someone who has extremely    high-level hacking or problem-solving ability.   3. A person who is    permitted to do things forbidden to ordinary people; one who has    {wheel} privileges on a system.   4. A Unix expert, esp. a Unix    systems programmer.   This usage is well enough established that    `Unix Wizard' is a recognized job title at some corporations and to    most headhunters.   See {guru}, {lord high fixer}.   See also {deep    magic}, {heavy wizardry}, {incantation}, {magic}, {mutter}, {rain    dance}, {voodoo programming}, {wave a dead chicken}.

Wizard Book n.   "Structure and Interpretation of Computer    Programs" (Hal Abelson, Jerry Sussman and Julie Sussman; MIT Press,    1984, 1996; ISBN 0-262-01153-0), an excellent computer science text    used in introductory courses at MIT.   So called because of the    wizard on the jacket.   One of the {bible}s of the LISP/Scheme world.    Also, less commonly, known as the {Purple Book}.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
wizard hat n.   [also, after Terry Pratchett, `pointy hat']    Notional headgear worn by whoever is the {wizard} in a particular    context.   The implication is that it's a transferable role.   "Talk    to Alice, she's wearing the TCP/IP wizard hat while Bob is on    vacation."   This metaphor is sufficiently live that one may actually    see hackers miming the act of putting on, taking off, or    transferring a phantom hat.   Compare {patch pumpkin}.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
wizard mode n.   [from {rogue}] A special access mode of a    program or system, usually passworded, that permits some users    godlike privileges.   Generally not used for operating systems    themselves (`root mode' or `wheel mode' would be used instead).    This term is often used with respect to games that have editable    state.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:

An interactive help utility that guides the user through a       potentially complex task, such as configuring a {PPP} driver       to work with a new {modem}.   Wizards are often implemented as       a sequence of {dialog boxes} which the user can move forward       and backward through, filling in the details required.   The       implication is that the expertise of a human wizard in one of       the above senses is encapsulated in the software wizard,       allowing the average user to perform expertly.          [{Jargon File}]          (1998-09-07)
