In a few operating systems (MacOS, for example), an application can be dragged to a part of the screen called the "dock" (this is called the "taskbar" in Windows or Linux) to make it inactive, that is, to disconnect it from the window system. This is called "docking" in MacOS. The equivalent operation in Windows or Linux is called "minimizing", and is done by clicking the "minimize" button (the "minus sign") in the upper-right corner. | In a few operating systems (MacOS, for example), an application can be dragged to a part of the screen called the "dock" (this is called the "taskbar" in Windows or Linux) to make it inactive, that is, to disconnect it from the window system.
