just what is a click anyways?

I've heard in a couple of threads the word click, referring to distance, and I remember in Privateer, they would say "You're clear for clicks!"

Just what is a click? How long is it? Or is it refereing to direction, as in the "clicks" on a compass?

Kilometer

Or when shooting at something, a sight adjustment for wind and sun angle are made by moving the rear apertures in different directions. The amount of change is measured by "clicks" turned. The spotter assists the shooter/sniper by calling out sight corrections, such as "three clicks to the right."
