As long as we're degenerating into the whimsical, it's also a homophone
for a slang term for brother-in-law (BEAUF-rère).

Hello Vim List,
I listened to Bram's BOF this past weekend. I still don't
know what BOF means.
From Wikipedia:
BoF is an acronym for:
Basic Oxygen Furnace
Birds of a Feather
beginning of file
Body-on-frame
Breath of Fire
BOF can also mean:
Baptism of Fire
>> Board of Finance
>> Battalions of Fear
>> Biography of Ferns
boron oxyfluoride.
>> Best of Five
British Orienteering Federation

I would guess Birds of a Feather. Which is it?
Surely Bit of Fun should be included in that list :-)
Rob.
In French, "bof" is an interjection denoting lack of interest: (How
are you?) So-so. (Do you come with us?) Don't bother. (This new
sweater is nice, isn't it?) Bah, if you say so.
Best regards,
Tony.
