In software, a wildcard character is a kind of placeholder represented by a single character, such as an asterisk, which can be interpreted as a number of literal characters or an empty string. It is often used in file searches so the full name need not be typed.
A text box, text field or text entry box is a graphical control element intended to enable the user to input text information to be used by the program. Human Interface Guidelines recommend a single-line text box when only one line of input is required, and a multi-line text box only if more than one line of input may be required. Non-editable text boxes can serve the purpose of simply displaying text.
Towson University is a public university in Towson, Maryland. It is a part of the University System of Maryland. Founded in 1866 as Maryland's first training school for teachers, Towson University has evolved into a four-year degree-granting institution consisting of eight colleges with over 20,000 students enrolled. Towson is one of the largest public universities in Maryland and still produces the most teachers of any university in the state.
The caret is an inverted V-shaped grapheme. It is the spacing character ^ in ASCII and other character sets that may also be called a hat, control, uparrow, or, less frequently, chevron, xor sign, 'to the power of' (exponent), pointer, or wedge. Officially, this character is referred to as circumflex accent in both ASCII and Unicode terminology, whereas caret refers to a similar but lowered Unicode character: U+2038‸CARET. Additionally, there is a lowered variant with a stroke: U+2041⁁CARET INSERTION POINT.
Command Prompt, also known as cmd.exe or cmd, is the command-line interpreter on Windows NT, Windows CE, OS/2, eComStation and ReactOS operating systems. It is the counterpart of COMMAND.COM in DOS and Windows 9x systems, and analogous to the Unix shells used on Unix-like systems. The initial version of Command Prompt for Windows NT was developed by Therese Stowell.
In computing, caret navigation is a kind of keyboard navigation where a caret is used to navigate within a text document. It is a fundamental feature for applications that deal with text, for example text editors, word processors, desktop publishing programs, and spreadsheets.
In computer user interfaces, a cursor is an indicator used to show the current position for user interaction on a computer monitor or other display device that will respond to input from a text input or pointing device. The mouse cursor is also called a pointer, owing to its resemblance in usage to a pointing stick.
Guillemets, angle quotes, angle brackets, or carets, are a pair of punctuation marks in the form of sideways double chevrons, used as quotation marks in a number of languages. Sometimes a single guillemet, is used for another purpose. They are not used officially in the English language, although they are occasionally used to indicate that some text was translated from another language into English for the reader's benefit.
Caret notation is a notation for control characters in ASCII encoding. The notation consists of a caret (^) followed by a single character ; this digraph stands for a control character whose ASCII code is computed by inverting the 7th bit of the character's ASCII code. As a useful mnemonic, this has the effect of rendering a C0 control character with code N, where N is from 1 to 26 as the Nth capital letter of the alphabet, since capital letters are represented by the ASCII code range 65-90 (0x41-0x5A),
In the C0 control code set used in ASCII, ETB is a short name for the End-of-Transmission-Block character. It is a communication control character used to indicate the end of a block of data for communications purposes. ETB is used for blocking data when the block structure is not necessarily related to the processing function.
The Page Up and Page Down keys are two keys commonly found on computer keyboards.
Synchronous Idle (SYN) is the ASCII control character 22 (0x16), represented as ^V in caret notation. In EBCDIC the corresponding character is 50 (0x32). Synchronous Idle is used in some synchronous serial communication systems such as Teletype machines or the Binary Synchronous (Bisync) protocol to provide a signal from which synchronous correction may be achieved between data terminal equipment, particularly when no other character is being transmitted.
CARET is a software application for the structural and functional analysis of the cerebral and cerebellar cortex. CARET is developed in the Van Essen Laboratory in the Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Missouri.
Caret is an unincorporated community in Essex County, in the U.S. state of Virginia.
Sette baschi rossi also known as The Red Berets, Seven Red Berets and Congo Hell is a 1969 Italian/West German co-production about a fictional group of mercenaries filmed in Ethiopia produced and directed by screenwriter Mario Siciliano in his debut as a director.
