  botanical.com - A Modern Herbal | Docks - Herb Profile and Information
The name Dock is applied to a widespread tribe of broad-leaved wayside weeds, having roots possessing astringent qualities united in some with a cathartic principle, rendering them valuable as substitutes for Rhubarb, a plant of the same family.
All the Docks resemble our Garden Rhubarb more or less, both in their general characteristics and in possessing much tannin.Most of them furnish rumicin, or crysophanic acid, which is useful in chronic scrofulous disorders.
Rumicin is the active principle of the Yellow Dock, and from the root, containing Chrysarobin, a dried extract is prepared officially, of which from 1 to 4 grains may be given for a dose in a pill.

 Top 10 Reasons the Apple Dock Sucks
The Dock is akin to a brightly-colored set of children's blocks, ideal for your first words—dog, cat, run, Spot, run—but not too effective for displaying the contents of War and Peace.
The Dock team apparently did not hear about any of these goings-on, because color is completely ignored by the Dock, both in the icon and the text, eliminating yet another attribute.

The Dock keeps applications on its left side, while folders and windows are housed on its right.
If you want to add an application, file, or folder to the Dock, just drag its icon from any Finder window (or the Desktop) and drop it on the Dock; the icons in the Dock will move aside to make room for their new neighbor.
The resulting icon that appears in the Dock is actually an alias of the original item (it's kind of a bridge to your original item).

 Dock (computing) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Dock is a graphical user interface feature first introduced in the NeXTSTEP and OPENSTEP operating systems, and radically changed and refined in Mac OS X, where it behaves more like the Apple Newton's Newton OS Dock.
These features are unlike those of the dock in the NeXT operating systems, where the capacity of the Dock is dependent on the current display resolution.
Some examples are Gnome Dock for Gnome DE, Kiba-dock, which needs a composite manager running and integrates best with Gnome, KXDocker (amongst others) for KDE and various other gdesklet/ADesklet docks.
