[UK, from rude slang noun nadgers for testicles; compare American &
British bollixed] Of software or hardware (not people), to twiddle
some object in a hidden manner, generally so that it conforms better
to some format. For instance, string printing routines on 8-bit
processors often take the string text from the instruction stream,
thus a print call looks like jsr print:"Hello world". The print
routine has to nadger the saved instruction pointer so that the
processor doesn't try to execute the text as instructions when the
subroutine returns. See {adger}.
