And you were told rightly. Got that as well, from the Tech Support at
Kurzweil 1000 when they were explaining scanning source stuff.

WYSIWYG is just one of many bits of jargon floating around the nerd
section of society.
Another one of interest is the term TWAIN which describes a driver
required for Optical Character Recognition.
TWAIN literally means a Tool Without an Interesting Name.
Most confusion to normal people, but amusing for nerds.
