widget
1. A placeholder term used to stand for a real object in
didactic examples (especially database tutorials). Legend has it
that the original widgets were holders for buggy whips. "But
suppose the parts list for a widget has 52 entries..."
2. In a graphical user interface, a combination of a graphic
symbol and some program code to perform a specific function.
E.g. a scroll-bar or button. [possibly evoking "window gadget"]
Windowing systems usually provide widget libraries containing
commonly used widgets drawn in a certain style and with consistent
behaviour.
In Microsoft Windows GUI programming, these are generally known
as "controls".
