smop
(foldoc) | SMOP
/S-M-O-P/ [Simple (or Small) Matter of Programming] 1. A piece
of code, not yet written, whose anticipated length is
significantly greater than its complexity. Used to refer to a
program that could obviously be written, but is not worth the
trouble. Also used ironically to imply that a difficult
problem can be easily solved because a program can be written
to do it; the irony is that it is very clear that writing such
a program will be a great deal of work. "It's easy to enhance
a Fortran compiler to compile COBOL as well; it's just an
SMOP." 2. Often used ironically by the intended victim when a
suggestion for a program is made which seems easy to the
suggester, but is obviously (to the victim) a lot of work.
