"Dock" har en historia! :
Citat:
For the hardware device, see Docking station.
A dock is a graphical user interface element that typically provides the user with a way of launching, switching between, and monitoring running programs or applications.
The earliest known implementation of what we now know of today as a "Dock", is the Iconbar in RISC OS, released in 1987.[...]

Varför kallade dom inte
"graphical-user-interface" elementet för "GUIE" eller nåt, istället för "dock"!! Eller höll fast vid Capital D på mackapären!!
Läs det här!!! :
Citat:
The Dock is the bar of icons that sits at the bottom or side of your screen. It provides easy access to some of the applications on your Mac (such as Mail, Safari, Address Book, and QuickTime Player), displays which applications are currently running, and holds windows in their minimized state. It's also the place to find the Trash (its icon looks like a waste basket). For your convenience, you can add your own applications, files, and folders to the Dock too.

Hade "the bar" skrivits
Dock i st f
dock i "guiden" -

- nedan hade den (guiden) gjort bättre skäl för namnet - men gör det begreppet "by default" begripligare i sammanhanget?
Citat:
These four applications are displayed in the dock by default:
Safari
Mail
Photos
iPod

Betyder det i så fall att man kan välja om man vill ha "dockan" (the Dock med stort d) på paddans skärm som "standard - eller grundapp" (se citatet från bloggspotten i första posten), eller "försumma" appens visning om man så önskar?
Dockan (med Safari etc) ...
Citat:
[...]remains in effect unless canceled or overridden by the operator: changed the default for the font in the word processing program.

Nån paddolog som kan bekräfta?
