WIKIMEDIA DISAMBIGUATION PAGE
Mathematical point; Points; Point (disambiguation); P.O.I.N.T.; Point (unit)
point
1. <unit, text> (Sometimes abbreviated "pt") The unit of
length used in typography to specify text character height,
rule width, and other small measurements.
There are six slightly different definitions: Truchet point,
Didot point, ATA point, TeX point, Postscript point,
and IN point.
In Europe, the most commonly used is Didot and in the US, the
formerly standard ATA point has essentially been replaced by
the PostScript point due to the demise of traditional
typesetting systems and rise of desktop computer based systems
running software such as QuarkXPress, Adobe InDesign and
Adobe Pagemaker.
There are 20 twips in a point and 12 points in a pica
(known as a "Cicero" in the Didot system).

2. <hardware> To move a pointing device so that the
on-screen pointer is positioned over a certain object on the
screen such as a button in a graphical user interface. In
most window systems it is then necessary to click a
(physical) button on the pointing device to activate or select
the object. In some systems, just pointing to an object is
known as "mouse-over" event which may cause some help text
(called a "tool tip" in Windows) to be displayed.
