From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   REP
  
      A directive used in {IBM} {object code} {card
      decks} (and later {PTF Tapes}) to REPlace fragments of already
      assembled or compiled object code prior to {link edit}.
      Recompiling or reassembling the {source code} to produce a
      whole new object module was only possible if the {source code}
      was available, which it rarely was (if you had the object you
      were lucky!)   It was also quicker to apply incremental changes
      with REP cards and they also circumvented the {checksums} and
      {card sequence numbers} present in the object code.
