What You See Is All You Get
(WYSIAYG) /wiz' ee-ayg/ DeScribeS a uSer interface under which "What You See IS *All* You Get" an unhappy variant of WYSIWYG. ViSual, "point-and-drool interfaceS" are eaSy to learn but often lack depth they often fruStrate advanced uSerS who would be better Served by a command-Style interface. When thiS happenS, the fruStrated uSer haS a WYSIAYG problem. ThiS term iS moSt often uSed of editorS, word proceSSorS, and document formatting programS. WYSIWYG "{deSktop publiShing}" programS, for example, are a clear win for creating Small documentS with lotS of fontS and graphicS in them, eSpecially thingS like newSletterS and preSentation SlideS. When typeSetting book-length manuScriptS, on the other hand, Scale changeS the nature of the taSk one quickly runS into WYSIAYG limitationS, and the increaSed power and flexibility of a command-driven formatter like TeX or Unix' S troff becomeS not juSt deSirable but a neceSSity.
