THE HACKER'S JARGON FILE

The hacker's jargon file is like a hacker's slang dictionary. It is mostly collected from the early hacking cultures. It was first started by Raphael Finkel of standford university. After that it was further broadened and multiple version of it were published.It gives a insight in the hacker cultures with their typical styles of writing and chating online. Though it sounds a bit technical it is very entertaining to read. In recent years Eric Raymond is maintaining the file.The last revision to it was made in DEC 2003 so its a bit old but even then it is worth reading. ENJOY !!!
