21:2221:22, 12 September 2022 diff hist +44 m Circular buffer improved style in the code example, changed a useless comment and corrected a constant definition. The entire section and the code example remains incorrect and misleading and I shall fix it fully if I find the time Tag: Visual edit

10:1510:15, 28 August 2022 diff hist +21 m Herb Caen linked 'tongue in cheek' to its article Tag: Visual edit
10:0610:06, 28 August 2022 diff hist +4 m Jargon File linked the 'tongue-in-cheek' idiom to its article Tag: Visual edit

23:1723:17, 22 August 2022 diff hist +58 m Web browser Disambiguated "necessary content" to "files", "displaying on a device" to "graphical rendering on a screen". I argue that by using these terms we keep the reader 'out of the dark' to the actual workings of a browser, without adding much complexity. Use of the term "graphical rendering" especially clarifies that the webpage is not something to be directly displayed but rather consists of instructions for the browser. Tag: Visual edit
22:5722:57, 22 August 2022 diff hist +25 m Browser engine Electron is based on Chromium, not Chrome Tag: Visual edit
22:4322:43, 22 August 2022 diff hist +1 m Dark web Ambiguous "Google browser" corrected to "web browser". Although the former term could have related to either a web browser or search engine, a web browser fits the context better. Tag: Visual edit

14:4714:47, 23 July 2022 diff hist −12 m "Hello, World!" program →Bash: retitled the example to 'Unix shell' as the snippet wasn't BASH specific Tag: Visual edit

14:2114:21, 23 July 2022 diff hist +4 m "Hello, World!" program linked the phrase "proof of concept" in the PSP example to its article Tag: Visual edit

23:3423:34, 15 July 2022 diff hist +7 m Pandoc Pandoc, licensed under the GPL belongs under the category of "free software", 'free and open-source' relates to groups of software containing both GPL and permissively licensed programs Tag: Visual edit

14:4614:46, 14 July 2022 diff hist +36 m Free and open-source software the initial phrasing implied that a single piece of software can be licensed under *both* a Free license *and* an open-source (permissive) license, which is not the case. This edit aims to discourage the common [incorrect] use of the term "Free and open-source" when referring to singular programs. Tag: Visual edit
14:2614:26, 14 July 2022 diff hist −20 m ClamAV software licensed under the GPL is called free software (as in freedom). Availability of source code is one of the freedoms described in the licensed making the term "free, open-source" redundant Tag: Visual edit

15:4515:45, 11 July 2022 diff hist +61 m Unix filesystem corrected the over-specific "KDE, perl" to more general terms Tag: Visual edit

16:2716:27, 28 June 2022 diff hist −1 m Sony Mobile removed a tracing dash, seemingly a typo. Perhaps it referred to its usage in naming linux based systems? (e.g. linux-gnu) Tag: Visual edit
15:0115:01, 28 June 2022 diff hist +564 Talk:List of free and open-source software packages →Turn the list into a table: new section
14:4114:41, 28 June 2022 diff hist +759 List of free and open-source software packages extended the web browser section and split it into two sections Tag: Visual edit
14:0814:08, 28 June 2022 diff hist −20 m Links (web browser) The term open-source is used to refer to software licensed under permissive free software licenses; links uses the GPL and thus should be referred to as free software Tag: Visual edit
13:1413:14, 28 June 2022 diff hist +2 m Chromium (web browser) specified the BSD license used in the summary table Tag: Visual edit
12:4212:42, 28 June 2022 diff hist +1 m GNU General Public License small grammar fix Tag: Visual edit

18:0218:02, 24 June 2022 diff hist −26 m MediaWiki MediaWiki uses the GPL software license, the authors of which discourage the use of the term 'open source' and enforce calling software using the license 'free software' (of free/libre). https://web.archive.org/web/20190924010107/https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html Tags: Reverted Visual edit
