Subject: OT: L33Tspeak "spelling" (was: Re: The .bash_history that Never Heard Anything at All)
> spelling words 'your' way [...]

Oh, you are probably referring to the word "seekrit" -
...and stuff like that?
(& maybe the double "r" in "Herroes"?)

The "L33T" article, at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L33T
or even
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L337
clearly talks about stuff like this; -- e.g., under "== Vocabulary ==", it
has a sub-section "Terminology and common misspellings";
but -- (probably more to the point!) -- under "== History ==" it says, in
part,
<< "One theory is that it was developed to defeat text filters [...]
However, creative misspellings [...] were also a way to attempt to indicate
one was knowledgeable about the culture of computer users [...] " >>
