gweep          /gweep/ To {hack}, usually at night, or one who does so.   At       {WPI}, from 1977 onward, gweeps could often be found at the       College Computing Center punching cards or crashing the       {PDP-10} or, later, the {DEC-20}.   The term has survived the       demise of those technologies, however, and is still alive in       late 1991.   "I'm going to go gweep for a while.   See you in       the morning."   "I gweep from 8 PM till 3 AM during the week."          "Gweep" originated as an onomatopeiac term, evoking the sound       of the (once-ubiquitous) {Hazeltine 9000} terminals' bell on       WPI campus.          A gweep is one step above a {fweep}.          [{Jargon File}]          (1995-01-31)

gzip          {GNU} compression utility.   Gzip reduces       the size of the named files using {Lempel-Ziv} {LZ77       compression}.   Whenever possible, each file is replaced by one       with the {filename extension} ".gz".   Compressed files can be       restored to their original form using gzip -d or gunzip or       zcat.          The Unix "{compress}" utility is patented (by two separate       patents, in fact) and is thus shunned by the GNU Project since       it is not {free software}.   They have therefore chosen gzip,       which is free of any known {software patent}s and which tends       to compress better anyway.   All compressed files in the {GNU}       {anonymous FTP} area (gnu.org/pub/gnu) are in gzip       format and their names end in ".gz" (as opposed to       "compress"-compressed files, which end in ".Z").          Gzip can uncompress "compress"-compressed files and "pack"       files (which end in ".z").   The decompression algorithms are       not patented, only compression is.          The gzip program is available from any {GNU archive site} in       {shar}, {tar}, or gzipped tar format (for those who already       have a prior version of gzip and want faster data       transmission).   It works on virtually every {Unix} system,       {MS-DOS}, {OS/2} and {VMS}.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Gap       a rent or opening in a wall (Ezek. 13:5; comp. Amos 4:3). The       false prophets did not stand in the gap (Ezek. 22: 30), i.e.,       they did nothing to stop the outbreak of wickedness.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Geba       the hill, (2 Sam. 5:25 [1 Chr. 14:16, "Gibeon"]; 2 Kings 23:8;       Neh. 11:31), a Levitical city of Benjamin (1 Kings 15:22; 1 Sam.       13:16; 14:5, wrongly "Gibeah" in the A.V.), on the north border       of Judah near Gibeah (Isa. 10:29; Josh. 18:24, 28). "From Geba       to Beersheba" expressed the whole extent of the kingdom of       Judah, just as "from Dan to Beersheba" described the whole       length of Palestine (2 Kings 23:8). It has been identified with       Gaba (Josh. 18:24; Ezra 2:26; Neh. 7:30), now Jeb'a, about 5 1/2       miles north of Jerusalem.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Gibeah       a hill or hill-town, "of Benjamin" (1 Sam. 13:15), better known       as "Gibeah of Saul" (11:4; Isa. 10:29). It was here that the       terrible outrage was committed on the Levite's concubine which       led to the almost utter extirpation of the tribe of Benjamin       (Judg. 19; 20), only six hundred men surviving after a       succession of disastrous battles. This was the birthplace of       Saul, and continued to be his residence after he became king (1       Sam. 10:26; 11:4; 15:34). It was reckoned among the ancient       sanctuaries of Palestine (10:26; 15:34; 23:19; 26:1; 2 Sam.       21:6-10), and hence it is called "Gibeah of God" (1 Sam. 10:5,       R.V. marg.). It has been identified with the modern Tell el-Ful       (i.e., "hill of the bean"), about 3 miles north of Jerusalem.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Gob       a pit, a place mentioned in 2 Sam. 21:18, 19; called also Gezer,       in 1 Chr. 20:4.
