windowing system

   Software which allows a workstation's screen to be divided
   into rectangular areas which act like a separate input/output
   devices under the control of different application programs.
   This gives the user the ability to see the output of several
   processes at once and to choose which one will receive input
   by selecting its window, usually by pointing at it with a
   mouse.

   Examples are the X Window System, and proprietary systems on
   the Macintosh and NeXT, NeWS on Suns and RISC OS on
   the Archimedes.  See also WIMP.
