Maybe try thinking of it in terms of `quesadillo' or `picadillo' (though that last means something else ~not great~, let me see ... ) <p> <h3>picadillo </h3> <blockquote>a spicy Latin-American hash or stew of meat and vegetables often with raisins and olives that is commonly used as a filling (as for tacos) or served with rice and beans </blockquote> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/picadillo">cite </a> </ul> <p> <p>... well, I was wrong. Picadillo sounds delicous! PLUS: `pica' means `small', right? And dillo is a *small* web browser ... <p> <p>that must've been what the authors meant all along :D <p> <p>-~-~-~-~-~-~ <p> <p>okay, but now I'm really curious as to where the name `dillo' came from. So let's see what I can find (I'll be back, not that you'll notice .... ) <p> <ul> <li><a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/dillo/mailman/message/4410836/">according to this (thanks Wikipedia!) </a> </ul> <p>the name `dillo' came from another browser that dillo is based on called `armadillo', "hence the name" (says Wikipedia). <p> <p>I wasn't able to find anything on the `armadillo' browser (it's probably lost to the sands of time, like an hourglass....) but I was able to find this neat website: <ul> <li><a href="https://armadillo-online.org/">Armadillo Online! </a> </ul> <p>~ for all your armadillo facts ~ <p> <p>:) </body> </html>
