Util. Vs App. Vs Prog.
« on: June 01, 2011, 09:06:05 AM »
It seems more and more these names are being thrown around with out any clear division in the other camps. Not so much in Amigaland mind you, but it is still enough to make it confusing.
 
For instance, is a game a program or can it also be an App.?
 
I used to think Utils. were strait forward, but now that title is being used for things I wouldn't think as Utils. OR Apps.
 
So I thought I'd ask you all, what do you consider a Util., an App. and a Prog.?  And if you can, give examples.
