Marion Harris gave a talk at 1985 Portland (Fireworks and Salmon) Usenix =
about the unapologetic use of such verbs.
Grep uses the =E2=80=9Cgr=E2=80=9D as in grasp, grope, grab, etc, =
similar to the =E2=80=9Csl=E2=80=9D in slither, slider, sleek, etc. She =
gave a linguistic term for such things, and I remember a word like =
=E2=80=9Csythesim=E2=80=9D, but that=E2=80=99s not it.
