baroque: adj. [common] Feature-encrusted; complex; gaudy; verging on excessive.
Said of hardware or (esp.) software designs, this has many of the
connotations of elephantine or
monstrosity but is less extreme and not pejorative
in itself. In the absence of other, more negative descriptions this term
suggests that the software is trembling on the edge of bad taste but has
not quite tipped over into it. “Metafont even has features to
introduce random variations to its letterform output. Now
that is baroque!” See also
rococo.
