 Color Graphics Adapter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Color Graphics Adapter (CGA), introduced in 1981, was IBM's first color graphics card, and the first color computer display standard for the IBM PC.
As early as 1985, emulator memory-resident programs such as SIMCGA were available, allowing the display of CGA graphics mode data in Hercules graphics modes (the result looking like crude dithering).
Although a roundabout way of achieving 16 color graphics display, this worked quite well [3] and the mode was even mentioned (although not explained) in IBM's official hardware documentation.

 Smart Computing encyclopedia Entry - enhanced graphics adapter (EGA)
EGA is a graphic standard introduced by IBM in 1984 as a contemporary to the IBM PC AT personal computer.
Computers with EGA technology are not usable for much of anything anymore, although they might make nice collectables.

 History Computer Monitors CRT Pixel Resolution Display Video
Often referred to as a monitor when packaged in a separate case, the display is the most-used output device on a computer.
Just look at the advances made by IBM over the course of a decade: In 1981, IBM introduced the Color Graphics Adapter (CGA), which was capable of rendering four colors, and had a maximum resolution of 320 pixels horizontally by 200 pixels vertically.
The display capabilities of a computer, however, depend on both the logical circuitry (provided in the video adapter) and the display monitor.

 Video displays: Section Print copy, Page 1
In a graphics display, a value for every possible dot position on the screen is stored as one or more bits in memory, the contents of the memory are read out directly to the video monitor 60 times a second.
EGA uses RAM memory to hold the bit pattern to draw the text mode characters--a RAM character generator instead of a ROM generator.
Two default fonts (8 x 14 EGA font and the 8 x 8 CGA font) are stored in a 16K video BIOS ROM on the EGA.

 Enhanced Graphics Adapter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The EGA standard was made obsolete by the introduction of VGA by IBM in April 1987 with the PS/2 computer line.
The Enhanced Graphics Adapter (EGA) is the IBM PC computer display standard specification located between CGA and VGA in terms of graphics performance (that is, colour and space resolution).
The EGA card included a 16 kilobyte ROM to extend the system BIOS for additional graphics functions and included the Motorola MC6845 video address generator.

EPS is used for PostScript graphics files that are to be incorporated into other documents.
This sense had not been completely eclipsed by the modern connotation of power-transducing machinery in Charles Babbage's time, which explains why he named the stored-program computer that he designed in 1844 the "Analytical Engine".
A piece of hardware that encapsulates some function but can't be used without some kind of front end.

There is of course no reason to stick with EGA when it is obsolete and VGA cards are so cheap and provide much more performance and software compatibility.
You will occasionally run into older systems that still use EGA; EGA-level graphics are the minimum requirement for Windows 3.x and so some very old systems still using Windows 3.0 may be EGA.
EGA allowed graphical output up to 16 colors (chosen from a palette of 64) at screen resolutions of 640x350, or 80x25 text with 16 colors, all at a refresh rate of 60 Hz.

His relatives were not numerous: there were two cousins; and he had an uncle in Iowa, a country minister whom he had money; nor could he quite conjure his imagination into picturing any pawn his watch, which was an old-fashioned one of silver and might but realistic in detail, and horridly probable--of his.

RIP was designed as a method of transferring graphic imagery between two modem users, primarily to enhance the aesthetic experience a BBS (Bulletin Board System).
The Remote Imaging Protocol (RIP), also referred to as RIPscrip (and frequently, yet incorrectly as RIPscript), was an early vector graphics protocol, created by TeleGrafix Communications.

While I can't see myself looking up the definition of "endless loop" (I see enough of the real thing in my own code), certainly a brief explanation of EPS or the enhanced keyboard, or even a well-written paragraph explaining what the overused word "engine" is supposed to mean, is useful to have nearby.
However, the scope of the topics covered seems just about right, as indicated by the entries on another randomly chosen set of pages; see Example 2.
