|
/RTFB/ , imp. [Unix] Abbreviation for Read The Fucking Binary. Used when
|
|
|
|
|
neither documentation nor source for the problem at hand exists, and the
|
|
|
|
|
only thing to do is use some debugger or monitor and directly analyze the
|
|
|
|
|
assembler or even the machine code. No source for the buggy port driver?
|
|
|
|
|
Aaargh! I hate proprietary operating systems. Time to RTFB. Of the various
|
|
|
|
|
RTF? forms, RTFB is the least pejorative against anyone asking a question
|
|
|
|
|
for which RTFB is the answer; the anger here is directed at the absence of
|
|
|
|
|
both source and adequate documentation.
