This term has nothing to do with the use of the word href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=flag">flag to mean a variable that has two values. It came into use when a massive change was made to the href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Multics">Multics href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=time-sharing">time-sharing system to convert from the old href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=ASCII">ASCII code to the new one this was scheduled for Flag Day (a US holiday), June 14, 1966.
