程序中的复活节彩蛋

在国外很多地方，每年春分过后，第一次月圆后的第一个星期日就是“复活节”。许多西方人小时候会在当天玩一种找彩蛋的游戏，而彩蛋里面也会藏一些小礼物，找到彩蛋的人会很兴奋，所以彩蛋是“复活节”最典型的象征，代表了惊喜与另藏玄机。

在我们常用的软件当中隐藏了一些小东东，这些小东东我们称之为复活节彩蛋（Easter Eggs）。复活节彩蛋的内容包含得很广，从单纯地列出开发人员名单到3D影音游戏都有。我们常用的软件如Windows、Word和Excel以及我们 用来上网的浏览器IE中都有这样的彩蛋。

  5. Press the enter key -- the opening screen shows up
