automagically/aw-toh-maj'i-klee/ or /aw-toh-maj'i-k*l-ee/ Automatically, but in a way that, for some reason (typically because it is too complicated, or too ugly, or perhaps even too trivial), the speaker doesn't feel like explaining to you. E.g. "The C-INTERCAL compiler generates C, then automagically invokes {cc} to produce an executable." See {magic}. [{Jargon File}] (2001-05-18)
