   Hello All,   
      
   Wikipedia says: In typesetting, widows and orphans are lines at the beginning   
   or end of a paragraph which are left dangling at the top or bottom of a page   
   or column, separated from the rest of the paragraph.   
      
   In Fidonet, we have flow files referring to echomail and ticket files (.TIC)   
   referring to fileecho files. If some echomail file has lost the flow file   
   referring to it, or a fileecho file has lost the .TIC referring to it, may I   
   call it a widow file (or maybe an orphan one)?
