Cool Jargon of the Day

Serving Hacker Jargon to the Internet since Jan 1995.

Objectionable-C /n./ Hackish take on "Objective-C", the name of an object-oriented dialect of C in competition with the better-known C++ (it is used to write native applications on the NeXT machine). Objectionable-C uses a Smalltalk-like syntax, but lacks the flexibility of Smalltalk method calls, and (like many such efforts) comes frustratingly close to attaining the Right Thing without actually doing so.

Cool Jargon changes every 00:00 GMT. Please come back often.
