jargon (ITS) 1. A derogatory play on "Unix wizard",

common among hackers who use Unix by necessity but would

prefer alternatives. The implication is that although the

person in question may consider mastery of Unix arcana to be a

wizardly skill, the only real skill involved is the ability to

tolerate (and the bad taste to wallow in) the incoherence and

needless complexity that is alleged to infest many Unix

programs. "This shell script tries to parse its arguments in

69 bletcherous ways. It must have been written by a real Unix

weenie."
