Weenix: /wee'niks/ n. 1. [ITS] A derogatory term for Unix,
derived from Unix weenie. According to one noted ex-ITSer, it is
"the operating system preferred by Unix Weenies: typified by poor
modularity, poor reliability, hard file deletion, no file version
numbers, case sensitivity everywhere, and users who believe that
these are all advantages". (Some ITS fans behave as though they
believe Unix stole a future that rightfully belonged to them. See
ITS, sense 2.) 2. [Brown University] A Unix-like OS developed
for tutorial purposes at Brown University. See
`http://www.cs.brown.edu/courses/cs167/weenix.html'. Named
independently of the ITS usage.
