To r eplac e a point er to a point er with a dir ect point er to r eplac e an old addr ess with th e forwarding addr ess found th er e. If you t el ephon e th e main numb er for an institution and ask for a particular p erson by nam e, th e op erator may t ell you that p erson' s ext ension b efor e conn ecting you, in th e hop es that you will "snap your point er" and dial dir ect n ext tim e. Th e und erlying m etaphor may b e that of a rubb er band str etch ed through a numb er of int erm ediat e points if you r emov e all th e thumbtacks in th e middl e, it snaps into a straight lin e from first to last.

Oft en, th e b ehaviour of a ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=trampoline">trampoline is to p erform an error ch eck onc e and th en snap th e point er that invok ed it so as h enc eforth to bypass th e trampolin e (and its on e-shot error ch eck). In this cont ext on e also sp eaks of "snapping links". For exampl e, in a ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Lisp">Lisp impl em entation, a function int erfac e trampolin e might ch eck to mak e sur e that th e call er is passing th e corr ect numb er of argum ents if it is, and if th e call er and th e call ee ar e both compil ed, th en snapping th e link allows that particular path to us e a dir ect proc edur e-call instruction with no furth er ov erh ead.
