Hi all,
Here on the LyX list we use the word MWE to mean the simplest example
that still exhibits the symptom. But MWE stands for Minimum *Working*
Example, and by definition, the file that exhibits the symptom does not
"work". Also, I think I've seen MWE used on various LaTeX venues to
mean the smallest file that works, for a specific feature you want to
incorporate.
Can anyone think of a better name for the tiniest file that exhibits a
symptom?
Indeed it is confusing.
What are your thoughts on "minimal example" ?
Note that we have a Wiki page, although it doesn't address your question:
MWE does _not_ mean a working example in the sense of a correct output.
It means a minimal working one which shows the _problem_.
