tweak
1. To change slightly, usually in reference to a value. Also used synonymously
with twiddle. If a program is almost correct, rather than figure out the precise
problem you might just keep tweaking it until it works. See frobnicate and fudge
factor; also see shotgun debugging.
2. To tune or bum a program; preferred usage in the UK.
