chad
     
         /chad/ (Or "selvage" /sel'v*j/ (sewing and
        weaving), "{perf}", "perfory", "snaf").  1. The perforated
        edge strips on paper for {sprocket feed} printers, after they
        have been separated from the printed portion.
     
        The term {perf} may also refer to the perforations themselves,
        rather than the chad they produce when torn.
     
        [Why "snaf"?]
     
        2. (Or "chaff", "computer confetti", "keypunch droppings") The
        confetti-like bits punched out of {punched cards} or {paper
        tape} which collected in the {chad box}.
     
        One of the {Jargon File}'s correspondents believed that "chad"
        derived from the {chadless keypunch}.
