  fsck
       
           file system check.  The Unix program that
          checks a file system for internal consistency and bad blocks
          etc. and can repair some faults.
       
          fsck is often used after a crash when the file system has
          been left in an inconsistent state, e.g. due to incomplete
          flushing of buffers.
       
          Used on Usenet newsgroup alt.sysadmin.recovery as
          substitute for "fuck" and became more main-stream after the
          Communications Decency Act.
