text: n. 1. [techspeak] Executable code, esp. a pure code portion shared between multiple
instances of a program running in a multitasking OS. Compare
English. 2. Textual material in the mainstream sense; data in ordinary
ASCII or EBCDIC
representation (see flat-ASCII). “Those are
text files; you can review them using the editor.” These two contradictory senses confuse hackers, too.
