SYN
Scribble
  • n. To modify a data structure in a random and unintentionally destructive way. "Bletch! Somebody's disk-compactor program went berserk and scribbled on the i-node table. " "It was working fine until one of the allocation routines scribbled on low core. " Synonymous with trash; compare mung, which conveys a bit more intention, and mangle, which is more violent and final.
