- ...resolution.2.01
- There are about 150,000,000 receptors in the
human eye, but only about 1,000,000 optic nerve fibers, so the number
of ``pixels'' is several million, about that of a high quality
computer monitor.

- ...well.''2.01
- While a desktop user interface has been added to Unix and
desktop-style applications are available for it, there is still a
thriving Unix sub-culture that remains loyal to command-line oriented
tools such as Knuth's TeX [22], the Emacs
editor [38], wc for doing word counts, and so
on. [34] Emacs is interesting as an example of a tool which
goes well beyond the command line interface but in a direction
entirely different from the desktop model. If the desktop model is a
``point and click'' interface, the Emacs model might be called a ``cut
and paste'' interface. The user can capture text strings or sequences
of keystrokes and combine them into powerful operations. If that is
not sufficient, there is a complete implementation of Lisp that can
be used to extend the system. This type of programmability is an area
in which the desktop interface is notoriously weak. [16]

this functionality. Tab allows multiple simultaneous grabs of the
event stream to achieve the same effect.
