slidor

Slidor is a term used in multiple contexts with no single established meaning. It may refer to a product name, a component in software, or a fictional object.

In computing and user interfaces, slidor is sometimes used informally as a shorthand for a slider widget, especially in code comments or design briefs. It may denote a control that allows selecting a value along a continuous or discrete range by sliding a handle.

In hardware or manufacturing, slidor can appear as a brand name or model designation for sliding hardware, such as doors or drawers, or as a generic descriptor for sliding mechanisms.

In fiction and media, Slidor has appeared as the name of a device, artifact, or location in certain stories or games, typically as a mechanism to manipulate space, time, or movement.

Etymology and usage: The form likely derives from "slide" or "slider" with the -or suffix, but reliable origins are scarce. The term is more common in informal writing than in formal standards.
