Whats the Jargon File?
The Jargon File is a comprehensive compendium of hacker slang illuminating many aspects of hackish tradition, folklore, and humor. In it are definitions of all that funky slang that computer hackers (including Internet users) tend to use. The Jargon File is a common heritage of the hacker culture. I highly recommended reading this file–it’s educational and has high giggle value. It is available online in many places.
