2guys, before downvoting or voting to close, please provide an authoritative reference that clearly states what's the official acronym definition if there's one. The links provided by John and @eyoung100 don't answer the question. (one may argue that the question has little to do with Unix or Linux though).– Stéphane ChazelasNov 24 '14 at 16:18

4It's another recursive acronym. An oxymoronic example: SNARA stands for "SNARA's Not A Recursive Acronym". But it is. You saw it here first ;) Nov 24 '14 at 15:53

1@Dataman The docs you point to does not say pip is an acronym for "preferred installer program," it's saying pip is the preferred installer program. It's the difference between saying Windows is a trash operating system versus "Windows is an acronym for 'Trash Operating System.'" Apr 23 '20 at 4:07
