point-and-drool interface
<abuse> (Or "point-and-grunt interface") A parody of "point-and-shoot
interface", describing a windows, icons, and mouse-based (WIMP) graphical user
interface. The implication, of course, is that such an interface is only
suitable for idiots.
See for the rest of us, WIMP, drool-proof paper.
