alt /awlt/ 1. n. The alt shift key on an IBM PC or {clone} keyboard;
see {bucky bits}, sense 2 (though typical PC usage does not simply set
the 0200 bit). 2. n. The `option' key on a Macintosh; use of this term
usually reveals that the speaker hacked PCs before coming to the Mac
(see also {feature key}, which is sometimes _incorrectly_ called `alt').
3. n.,obs. [PDP-10; often capitalized to ALT] Alternate name for the
ASCII ESC character (ASCII 0011011), after the keycap labeling on some
older terminals; also `altmode' (/awlt'mohd/). This character was almost
never pronounced `escape' on an ITS system, in {TECO}, or under TOPS-10
-- always alt, as in "Type alt alt to end a TECO command" or "alt-U onto
the system" (for "log onto the [ITS] system"). This usage probably arose
because alt is more convenient to say than `escape', especially when
followed by another alt or a character (or another alt _and_ a
character, for that matter). 4. The alt hierarchy on Usenet, the tree of
newsgroups created by users without a formal vote and approval
procedure. There is a myth, not entirely implausible, that alt is
acronymic for "anarchists, lunatics, and terrorists"; but in fact it is
simply short for "alternative".

alt
<character> /awlt/ 1. The alt {modifier key} on many
{keyboards}, including the {IBM PC}. On some keyboards and
{operating systems}, (but not the IBM PC) the alt key sets bit
7 of the character generated.
See {bucky bits}.
2. The "{clover}" or "Command" key on a {Macintosh}; use of
this term usually reveals that the speaker hacked PCs before
coming to the Mac (see also {feature key}). Some Mac hackers,
confusingly, reserve "alt" for the Option key (and it is so
labelled on some Mac II keyboards).
3. (Obsolete {PDP-10}; often "ALT") An alternate name for the
{ASCII} ESC character (Escape, ASCII 27), after the keycap
labelling on some older {terminals}; also "altmode"
(/awlt'mohd/). This character was almost never pronounced
"escape" on an {ITS} system, in {TECO} or under {TOPS-10},
always alt, as in "Type alt alt to end a TECO command" or
"alt-U onto the system" (for "log onto the [ITS] system").
This usage probably arose because alt is easier to say.
4. <messaging> One of the {Usenet} {newsgroup} {hierarchies}.
It was founded by {John Gilmore} and {Brian Reid}. The alt
hierarchy is special in that anyone can create new groups here
without going though the normal voting proceduers, hence the
regular appearence of new groups with names such as
"alt.swedish.chef.bork.bork.bork".
