wart
Jump to user comments
A small, crocky feature that sticks out of an otherwise
clean design. Something conspicuous for localised ugliness,
especially a special-case exception to a general rule. For
example, in some versions of "csh(1)", single quotes
literalise every character inside them except "!". In ANSI C,
the "?" syntax used for obtaining ASCII characters in a
foreign environment is a wart. See also miswart.
