trap
     
        1. A program interrupt, usually an interrupt caused by some
        exceptional situation in the user program.  In most cases, the
        OS performs some action, then returns control to the program.
     
        2. To cause a trap.  "These instructions trap to the monitor."
        Also used transitively to indicate the cause of the trap.
        "The monitor traps all input/output instructions."
     
        This term is associated with assembler programming
        ("interrupt" or "exception" is more common among {HLL}
        programmers) and appears to be fading into history among
        programmers as the role of assembler continues to shrink.
        However, it is still important to computer architects and
        systems hackers (see {system}, sense 1), who use it to
        distinguish {deterministic}ally repeatable exceptions from
        timing-dependent ones (such as I/O interrupts).
