prepend |
2 definitions found From Jargon File (4.2.3, 23 NOV 2000) [jargon]: prepend /pree`pend'/ vt [by analogy with `append'] To prefix. As with `append' (but not `prefix' or `suffix' as a verb), the direct object is always the thing being added and not the original word (or character string, or whatever). "If you prepend a semicolon to the line the translation routine will pass it through unaltered." From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (13 Mar 01) [foldoc]: prepend/pree'pend'/ (by analogy with "append") To prefix or add to the beginning. [{Jargon File}] (1998-04-23)
