1. [ITS] A derogatory term for {Unix}, derived from {Unix weenie}.
According to one noted ex-ITSer, it is "the operating system
preferred by Unix Weenies: typified by poor modularity, poor
reliability, hard file deletion, no file version numbers, case
sensitivity everywhere, and users who believe that these are all
advantages". (Some ITS fans behave as though they believe Unix stole
a future that rightfully belonged to them. See {ITS}, sense 2.)
2. [Brown University] A Unix-like OS developed for tutorial purposes
at Brown University. See
http://www.cs.brown.edu/courses/cs167/weenix.html. Named
independently of the ITS usage.
