de-rezz

/deerez/ [from de-resolve via the movie Tron ] (also derez ) 1. vi. To
disappear or dissolve; the image that goes with it is of an object breaking
up into raster lines and static and then dissolving. Occasionally used of a
person who seems to have suddenly fuzzed out mentally rather than
physically. Usage: extremely silly, also rare. This verb was actually
invented as fictional hacker jargon, and adopted in a spirit of irony by
real hackers years after the fact. 2. vt. The Macintosh resource decompiler.
On a Macintosh, many program structures (including the code itself) are
managed in small segments of the program file known as resources ; Rez and
DeRez are a pair of utilities for compiling and decompiling resource files.
Thus, decompiling a resource is derezzing. Usage: very common.
