mod vt.,n. 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.
