Differential Descriptions

Current Definition
Descriptions that are based on a similar artifact and mention only the differences to it. Examples: describing emacs by describing its differences to vi, describing Genera by describing its differences to UNIX, VMS, MS-DOS. Can be a powerful technique in generating examples, especially if they are based on a system's model of a user.
