Good Thing (From the 1930 Sellar and Yeatman parody "1066 And All That") Often capitalised; always pronounced as if capitalised. 1. Self-evidently wonderful to anyone in a position to notice: "The {Trailblazer}'s 19.2 Kbaud PEP mode with {on-the-fly} Lempel-Ziv compression is a Good Thing for sites relaying netnews". 2. Something that can't possibly have any ill side-effects and may save considerable grief later: "Removing the {self-modifying code} from that {shared library} would be a Good Thing". 3. When said of software tools or libraries, as in "Yacc is a Good Thing", specifically connotes that the thing has drastically reduced a programmer's work load. Opposite: Bad Thing, compare big win. [Jargon File] (1995-05-07)
