  FLAP
       
          A symbolic mathematics package for IBM 360.

  flap
       
          1.  To unload a DECtape (so it goes flap,
          flap, flap).  Old-time hackers at MIT tell of the days
          when the disk was device 0 and microtapes were 1, 2,
          etc. and attempting to flap device 0 would instead start a
          motor banging inside a cabinet near the disk.
       
          The term is used, by extension, for unloading any magnetic
          tape.  See also macrotape.  Modern cartridge tapes no
          longer actually flap, but the usage has remained.
       
          The term could well be re-applied to DEC's TK50 cartridge
          tape drive, a spectacularly misengineered contraption which
          makes a loud flapping sound, almost like an old reel-type
          lawnmower, in one of its many tape-eating failure modes.
       
          2.  See flapping router.
