Apparently "T-Wing" and "Twing" both have something to do with space travel.
One is a Star Wars spacecraft and the other is netting to keep stuff from
floating around during space travel.
As far as tech writing is concerned, I usually refer to technical writing as
"documentation" or simply "writing." I think that it is a given that people
posting here are technical writers, so we don't need to specify that our
writing is technical. I think that we may sometimes need to specify when we
decide to discuss non-technical writing, though.
