Home of the Jargon File

The home of the Jargon File and its print version The New Hackers Dictionary is currently maintained by Eric S. Raymond. This augmented mirror of the Jargon File at retrologic.com is updated regularly from that site by an automated script.

An earlier version of the Jargon File is available, which better captures the PDP10 and Lisp cultures of the MIT and Stanford AI Labs where the File began as 'jargon-1'.

Here are some links to the Jargon File at its home site 'catb.org':

• browse the Jargon File at 'catb.org';

• download the Jargon File in different forms;
• how to add or change entries in the Jargon File;
