terminology - What does "to register" mean in terms of programming?

Question

I am familiar with processor registers, but I'm a little confused about how the author of this programming ebook is using the word:

"When you opened this e-book, it was the result of computations within the system which allowed you to launch the application, click the e-book have it register when you clicked the ebook, turn the pages, and so on."

Now, i have a nagging suspicion this either has to do with processor registers or the windows registry.

register在这种情况下是指捕获单击按钮的动作，然后可以执行其他代码。它与处理器寄存器或 Windows 注册表无关。
