k-

	This is the JargonFile ^(V4.00) entry for k- - Next: kahuna, Prev: K&R
:k-: /pref./ Extremely. Not commonly used among hackers, but quite common among crackers and warez d00dz in compounds such as k-kool /Kkool/, k-rad /Krad/, and k-awesome /Kawsm/. Also used to intensify negatives; thus, k-evil, k-lame, k-screwed, and k-annoying. Overuse of this prefix, or use in more formal or technical contexts, is considered an indicator of lamer status.
