TECO /tee'koh/ n.,v. obs.   1. [originally an acronym for    `[paper] Tape Editor and COrrector'; later, `Text Editor and    COrrector'] n. A text editor developed at MIT and modified by just    about everybody.   With all the dialects included, TECO may have been    the most prolific editor in use before {EMACS}, to which it was    directly ancestral.   Noted for its powerful    programming-language-like features and its unspeakably hairy syntax.    It is literally the case that every string of characters is a valid    TECO program (though probably not a useful one); one common game    used to be mentally working out what the TECO commands corresponding    to human names did.   2. vt. Originally, to edit using the TECO    editor in one of its infinite variations (see below).   3. vt.,obs.    To edit even when TECO is _not_ the editor being used!   This usage    is rare and now primarily historical.          As an example of TECO's obscurity, here is a TECO program that    takes a list of names such as:          Loser, J. Random       Quux, The Great       Dick, Moby       sorts them alphabetically according to surname, and then puts the    surname last, removing the comma, to produce the following:          Moby Dick       J. Random Loser       The Great Quux       The program is          [1 J^P$L$$       J <.-Z; .,(S,$ -D .)FX1 @F^B $K :L I $ G1 L>$$       (where ^B means `Control-B' (ASCII 0000010) and $ is actually an    {alt} or escape (ASCII 0011011) character).          In fact, this very program was used to produce the second, sorted    list from the first list.   The first hack at it had a {bug}: GLS    (the author) had accidentally omitted the `@' in front of `F^B',    which as anyone can see is clearly the {Wrong Thing}.   It worked    fine the second time.   There is no space to describe all the    features of TECO, but it may be of interest that `^P' means `sort'    and `J<.-Z; ...

TeX /tekh/ n.   An extremely powerful {macro}-based text    formatter written by Donald E. {Knuth}, very popular in the    computer-science community (it is good enough to have displaced Unix    {{troff}}, the other favored formatter, even at many Unix    installations).   TeX fans insist on the correct (guttural)    pronunciation, and the correct spelling (all caps, squished    together, with the E depressed below the baseline; the mixed-case    `TeX' is considered an acceptable kluge on ASCII-only devices).    Fans like to proliferate names from the word `TeX' -- such as    TeXnician (TeX user), TeXhacker (TeX programmer), TeXmaster    (competent TeX programmer), TeXhax, and TeXnique.   See also    {CrApTeX}.          Knuth began TeX because he had become annoyed at the declining    quality of the typesetting in volumes I-III of his monumental "Art    of Computer Programming" (see {Knuth}, also {bible}).   In a    manifestation of the typical hackish urge to solve the problem at    hand once and for all, he began to design his own typesetting    language.   He thought he would finish it on his sabbatical in 1978;    he was wrong by only about 8 years.   The language was finally frozen    around 1985, but volume IV of "The Art of Computer Programming" is    not expected to appear until 2002.   The impact and influence of    TeX's design has been such that nobody minds this very much.   Many    grand hackish projects have started as a bit of {toolsmith}ing on    the way to something else; Knuth's diversion was simply on a grander    scale than most.          TeX has also been a noteworthy example of free, shared, but    high-quality software.   Knuth offers a monetary awards to anyone who    found and reported bugs dating from before the 1989 code freeze; as    the years wore on and the few remaining bugs were fixed (and new    ones even harder to find), the bribe went up.   Though well-written,    TeX is so large (and so full of cutting edge technique) that it is    said to have unearthed at least one bug in every Pascal system it    has been compiled with.

Tux   Tux the Penguin is the official emblem of {Linux}, This    eventuated after a logo contest in 1996, during which Linus Torvalds    endorsed the idea of a penguin logo in a couple of famously funny    postings (http://www.woodsoup.org/~sbaker/tux/doc/).   Linus explained    that he was once bitten by a killer penguin in Australia and has    felt a special affinity for the species ever since.   (Linus has    since admitted that he was also thinking of Feathers McGraw, the    evil-genius penguin jewel thief who appeared in a Wallace & Grommit    feature cartoon, "The Wrong Trousers".)          Larry Ewing designed (http://www.isc.tamu.edu/~lewing/linux/) the    official Tux logo.   It has proved a wise choice, amenable to    hundreds of recognizable variations used as emblems of Linux-related    projects, products, and user groups. In fact, Tux has spawned an    entire mythology, of which the Gospel According to Tux    (http://www.ao.com/~regan/penguins/tux.html) and the mock-epic poem    "Tuxowolf" are among the best-known examples.          There is a `real' Tux - a black-footed penguin resident at the    Bristol Zoo.   Several friends of Linux bought a zoo sponsorship for    Linus as a birthday present in 1996.

TECO          /tee'koh/ (Originally an acronym for "[paper]       Tape Editor and COrrector"; later, "Text Editor and       COrrector"]) A {text editor} developed at {MIT} and modified       by just about everybody.   With all the dialects included, TECO       may have been the most prolific editor in use before {Emacs},       to which it was directly ancestral.   The first {Emacs} editor       was written in TECO.          It was noted for its powerful programming-language-like       features and its unspeakably {hairy} {syntax} (see {write-only       language}).   TECO programs are said to resemble {line noise}.       Every string of characters is a valid TECO program (though       probably not a useful one); one common game used to be predict       what the TECO commands corresponding to human names did.          As an example of TECO's obscurity, here is a TECO program that       takes a list of names such as:          Loser, J. Random       Quux, The Great       Dick, Moby          sorts them alphabetically according to surname, and then puts       the surname last, removing the comma, to produce the       following:          Moby Dick       J. Random Loser       The Great Quux          The program is          [1 J^P$L$$       J <.-Z; .,(S,$ -D .)FX1 @F^B $K :L I $ G1 L>$$          (where ^B means "Control-B" (ASCII 0000010) and $ is actually       an {alt} or escape (ASCII 0011011) character).          In fact, this very program was used to produce the second,       sorted list from the first list.   The first hack at it had a       {bug}: GLS (the author) had accidentally omitted the "@" in       front of "F^B", which as anyone can see is clearly the {Wrong       Thing}.   It worked fine the second time.   There is no space to       describe all the features of TECO, but "^P" means "sort" and       "J<.-Z; ... L>" is an idiomatic series of commands for "do       once for every line".          By 1991, {Emacs} had replaced TECO in hacker's affections but       descendants of an early (and somewhat lobotomised) version       adopted by {DEC} can still be found lurking on {VMS} and a       couple of crufty {PDP-11} {operating systems}, and ports of       the more advanced MIT versions remain the focus of some       antiquarian interest.          See also {retrocomputing}.          {(ftp://usc.edu/)} for {VAX}/{VMS}, {Unix}, {MS-DOS},       {Macintosh}, {Amiga}.          [Authro?   Home page?]          (2001-03-26)

Primary agricultural exports are cocoa, coffee,    and cotton, which together generate about 30% of total export    earnings. Togo is self-sufficient in basic foodstuffs when harvests    are normal. In the industrial sector phosphate mining is by far the    most important activity, although it has suffered from the collapse of    world phosphate prices and increased foreign competition. Togo serves    as a regional commercial and trade center. The government's    decade-long IMF and World Bank supported effort to implement economic    reform measures to encourage foreign investment and bring revenues in    line with expenditures has stalled. Political unrest, including    private and public sector strikes throughout 1992 and 1993, has    jeopardized the reform program, shrunk the tax base, and disrupted    vital economic activity. Although strikes had ended in 1994, political    unrest and lack of funds prevented the government from taking    advantage of the 50% currency devaluation of January 1994. Resumption    of World Bank and IMF flows will depend on implementation of several    controversial moves toward privatization and on downsizing the    military, on which the regime depends to stay in power.       National product: GDP - purchasing power parity - $3.3 billion (1993    est.)       National product real growth rate: NA%       National product per capita: $800 (1993 est.)       Inflation rate (consumer prices): 0.5% (1991 est.)       Unemployment rate: NA%       Budget:    revenues: $284 million    expenditures: $407 million, including capital expenditures of $NA    (1991 est.)       Exports: $221 million (f.o.b., 1993)    commodities: phosphates, cotton, cocoa, coffee    partners: EC 40%, Africa 16%, US 1% (1990)       Imports: $292 million (c.i.f., 1993)    commodities: machinery and equipment, consumer goods, food, chemical    products    partners: EC 57%, Africa 17%, US 5%, Japan 4% (1990)       External debt: $1.3 billion (1991)       Industrial production: growth rate 9% (1991 est.); accounts for 20% of    GDP       Electricity:    capacity: 30,000 kW    production: 60 million kWh    consumption per capita: 83 kWh (1993)       Industries: phosphate mining, agricultural processing, cement,    handicrafts, textiles, beverages       Agriculture: accounts for 49% of GDP; cash crops - coffee, cocoa,    cotton; food crops - yams, cassava, corn, beans, rice, millet,    sorghum; livestock production not significant; annual fish catch of    10,000-14,000 tons       Illicit drugs: increasingly used as transit hub by heroin traffickers       Economic aid:    recipient: US commitments, including Ex-Im (FY70-90), $142 million;    Western (non-US) countries, ODA and OOF bilateral commitments    (1970-90), $2 billion; OPEC bilateral aid (1979-89), $35 million;    Communist countries (1970-89), $51 million       Currency: 1 CFA franc (CFAF) = 100 centimes       Exchange rates: Communaute Financiere Africaine francs (CFAF) per US$1    - 529.43 (January 1995), 555.20 (1994), 283.16 (1993), 264.69 (1992),    282.11 (1991), 272.26 (1990)    note: the official rate is pegged to the French franc, and beginning    12 January 1994, the CFA franc was devalued to CFAF 100 per French    franc from CFAF 50 at which it had been fixed since 1948       Fiscal year: calendar year       Togo:Transportation       Railroads:    total: 532 km    narrow gauge: 532 km 1.000-m gauge       Highways:    total: 6,462 km    paved: 1,762 km    unpaved: unimproved earth 4,700 km       Inland waterways: 50 km Mono River       Ports: Kpeme, Lome       Merchant marine: none       Airports:    total: 9    with paved runways 2,438 to 3,047 m: 2    with paved runways under 914 m: 2    with unpaved runways 914 to 1,523 m: 5       Togo:Communications       Telephone system: NA telephones; fair system based on network of radio    relay routes supplemented by open wire lines    local: NA    intercity: microwave radio relay and open wire lines    international: 1 Atlantic Ocean INTELSAT and 1 SYMPHONIE earth station       Radio:    broadcast stations: AM 2, FM 0, shortwave 0    radios: NA       Television:    broadcast stations: 3 (relays 2)    televisions: NA       Togo:Defense Forces       Branches: Army, Navy, Air Force, Gendarmerie       Manpower availability: males age 15-49 936,270; males fit for military    service 491,578 (1995 est.)       Defense expenditures: exchange rate conversion - $48 million, 2.9% of    GDP (1993)
