From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
terpri /ter'pree/ vi.   [from LISP 1.5 (and later, MacLISP)] To    output a {newline}.   Now rare as jargon, though still used as    techspeak in Common LISP.   It is a contraction of `TERminate PRInt    line', named for the fact that, on some early OSes and hardware, no    characters would be printed until a complete line was formed, so    this operation terminated the line and emitted the output.

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
traversal          Processing {nodes} in a {graph} one at a time, usually       in some specified order.   Traversal of a tree is {recursive}ly       defined to mean visiting the {root node} and traversing its       children.   Visiting a node usually involves transforming it in       some way or collecting data from it.          In "pre-order traversal", a node is visited _before_ its       children.   In "post-order" traversal, a node is visited       _after_ its children.   The more rarely used "in-order"       traversal is generally applicable only to binary trees, and is       where you visit first a node's left child, then the node       itself, and then its right child.          For the binary tree:                   T             / \             I   S          / \          D   E          A pre-order traversal visits the nodes in the order T I D E S.       A post-order traversal visits them in the order D E I S T.   An       in-order traversal visits them in the order D I E T S.          (2001-10-01)
