WYSYWIG does indeed mean "What You See Is What You Get."
A WYSIWYG editor is an editor that shows the text with all formatting, exactly how it will look once it's "printed". You know, like Word or Google Docs. But unlike when you edit markdown or latex in a plain text editor. For example, writing comments on this site isn't WYSIWYG.

What You Submit Yields What I Give
I tried using your tool for it.
"WYSYWIG is an acronym that means++"
...
"What You See Is What You Get."
