mod

   [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}. See also {case mod}.

   2. Short for {modulo} but used only for its techspeak sense.
