- Added:
FSF, GPG, NIDS, NIPS, OOO, PHP,
RCS (now being doubled: one capitalized entry for the program name,
   one non capitalized entry for the general term),
SEO,
SFTP (3 times, with 3 different meanings),
SIR (in the meaning of ignal-to-interference ratio),
SPDIF (variant on S/PDIF),
TUI, WOM.

- Removed:
Empty line between the RCS ID and first acronym (not present in
   acronyms either; may cause parsing issues in future though, and
   causes trouble when sorting the file, so remove here instead of
   add in acronyms, also keeping things consistent);
ADP (duplicate),
AWK (also in acronyms),
EOL (in the meaning of ``end of life''; also in acronyms),
FCFS (also in acronyms),
ICE (in the meaning of ``in-circuit emulator''; duplicate),
MP (in the meaning of ``multiprocessor''; combined with the equally
   named entry for ``multiprocessing''),
PERL (not an official acronym),
PIN (also in acronyms).

- augment / correct entries (more consistent use of ``{}'' and
  ``[]'', capitalization, spelling, typos, fix incorrect acronym
  translations, quoting, punctuation);
- sort entries, as well as the order within ``{}'' parts;
- remove explanations within ``()'' parts where those are unneccesary
  (this is an acronym list, not a dictionary) and, in one case,
  correct such explanation;
- white space fixes.

From Bug Hunting.
