mod: vt.,n. [very common] 1. Short for `modify' or
`modification'. Very commonly used -- in fact the full terms are
considered markers that one is being formal. The plural `mods' is
used esp. with reference to bug fixes or minor design changes in
hardware or software, most esp. with respect to patch sets or a
diff. 2. Short for modulo but used _only_ for its techspeak
sense.
