WYSIWYG (pronounced "wizzy-wig" or "wuzzy-wig") is an acronym for What You See Is What You Get, and is used in computing to describe a system in which edited content appears exactly the same as the final product. It is commonly used for word processors, but has other applications, such as web (HTML) authoring.

Common Examples
