WYSIWYG stands for "What You See Is What You Get".. It refers to the fact that
some wordprocessors format the screen to allow you to see exactly what will be
printed..Underlining, centering, Bold, italics, etc... This is contrasted to
embedded control codes in the text to provide the special features.

                  Hope that helps.
