recursive acronym


A hackish (and especially href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=MIT">MIT) tradition is to choose acronyms and abbreviations that refer humorously to themselves or to other acronyms or abbreviations. The classic examples were two MIT editors called href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=EINE">EINE ("EINE Is Not href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Emacs">Emacs") and href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=ZWEI">ZWEI ("ZWEI Was EINE Initially"). More recently, there is a href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Scheme">Scheme compiler called href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=LIAR">LIAR (Liar Imitates Apply Recursively), and href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=GNU">GNU stands for "GNU' s Not Unix!" - and a company with the name href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=CYGNUS">CYGNUS, which expands to "Cygnus, Your GNU Support". See also href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=mung">mung. [href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Jargon File">Jargon File] (1995-04-28)
