Subject: Definition of a fillet? (looking for good online 3D dictionary)

I'm finding that there are conflicting definitions of fillet as it relates to 3D modeling. Some say it is any short curve or trim that connects two other pieces. Others say that fillet only applies to concave curves, and convex ones are actually radius corners. Anyone have a link to a definitive online dictionary or other reference that would shed some light on this?

Well, look in the manual of whatever software you are using. Many programs use the same term for different types of modeling or commands.
