  Window
     properly only an opening in a house for the admission of light
     and air, covered with lattice-work, which might be opened or
     closed (2 Kings 1:2; Acts 20:9). The spies in Jericho and Paul
     at Damascus were let down from the windows of houses abutting on
     the town wall (Josh. 2:15; 2 Cor. 11:33). The clouds are
     metaphorically called the "windows of heaven" (Gen. 7:11; Mal.
     3:10). The word thus rendered in Isa. 54:12 ought rather to be
     rendered "battlements" (LXX., "bulwarks;" R.V., "pinnacles"), or
     as Gesenius renders it, "notched battlements, i.e., suns or rays
     of the sun"= having a radiated appearance like the sun.

        represents a separate computational process, controlled
        more or less independently from the remaining part of the
        screen, and having widely varying functions, from simply
        displaying information to comprising a separate conceptual
        screen in which output can be visualized, input can be

  WINDOW. An opening made in the wall of a house to admit light and air, and 
  to enable those who are in to look out. 
       2. The owner has a right to make as many windows in his house when not 
  built on the line of his property as he may deem proper, although by so 
  doing be may destroy the privacy of his neighbors. Bac. Ab. Actions in 
  general, B. 
       3. In cities and towns it is evident that the owner of a house cannot 
  open windows in the partition wall without the consent of the owner of the 
  adjoining property, unless he possesses the right of having ancient lights. 
  (q.v.) The opening of such windows and destroying the privacy of the 
  adjoining property, is not, however, actionable; the remedy against such 
  encroachment is by obstructing them, without encroaching upon the rights of 
  the party who opened them, so as to prevent a right from being acquired by 
  twenty years use. 3 Camp. 82.
