Why is a window called a window?

The word Window originates from the Old Norse vindauga, from vindr "wind" and auga "eye." It is first recorded in the early 13th century, and originally referred to an unglazed hole in a roof.\n\nWhen you consider its origin, it is pretty easy to understand why it was called a window. Maybe you two can let it rest now.

You mean like on your windows desktop when you open a folder and then click on something else it opens in a new window? Because if thats the case just open up any folder you have and click on tools/folder options/ and in the general tab click on "Open each folder in the same window"

A dialog box is a Window on which the computer and the user interact.  The simplest example is a dialog that asks you if it's OK to close an application when you haven't saved files.  You have 3 buttons, Yes, No & Cancel.  The PC asks a question and is waiting for you to responde.\n\nYou get the message you got when a program is asking you something, the dialog box is hidden behind other windows, and is waiting for your response, and you're not aware of it.  Minimize or close other windows to get to see the dialog and input a response.

My home dictionary gives the origin as coming from the Latin word "historia".   The dictionary goes on to say, "probably from pictures adorning the windows of medieval buildings."\n\nThis makes me think of old European churches and castles, where 30-foot cathedrals would have stained glass picture windows of history or Biblical reference that told the complete story in a single picture.  Perhaps one story would sit on top of another on top of another, giving you different levels of stories.  Of course, what I'm saying now is just guessing, but I would consider it a well-educated guess.

In GUI a a main window displays the main data.\n\n\nA dialog is a secondary rectangular box that either requests or provides information. Many dialog boxes present options to choose from before Windows can carry out a command. Some dialog boxes present warnings or explain why a command can't be completed.\n\nTHINK OF WINDOW and DIALOG BOX as Heading Level 1 and Heading Level 2 respectively\n\nHeading 1 comes under heading 2

Actually it is called a process (without the trailing 'or') ID. All memory-resident programs have a process ID (us in the computer field call it a PID for short). This is mainly due to the fact that PIDs were first notable (not first period, i ma sure others used this beforehand) use of PIDs was in the UNIX Timesharing OS. There are a number of reasons that programs have PIDs, and if you ever tried to debug several instnces of a program running at once, it's a lot easier than going by the program name, esp. if the same name shows up 15 or so times :)

An application is generally specific to a particular system. Eg., say something like microsoft (MS) word is an application for MS windows.\n\nA program is in general not so specific, and can be a programmatic solution to any problem. Eg., program for calculating sum, printing tables, etc.\n\nHope this helped.

Its how the website's javascript handles the new window open. You should get the new I.E 7.0. It has tabbing and you can actually force it to open a new window whenever you click a link. Or you can also get http://www.mozilla.com and install FireFox or Mozilla and it has tabbing too. Try another browser to implement this.

In Java, everything is an object. This way, true encapsulation is achieved. Java is more strongly typed than C++. Java also has stronger enumerated types and the ability to synchronize threads.\n\nWith Java's swing library, it makes it easier to develop GUI applications. A single window can be created by using a few lines of code with Java rather than hundreds for C++...

Windows is an operating system for computers.  It's what allows programs to run on a computer.  Usually, Windows only runs on PC's, but Macintosh just came out with a computer on which Windows can be run (Before, they had a different type of operating system, I believe called MAC OS).  For more info, I'd check out www.microsoft.com
