stropping

Once the test begins, no work, not even light stropping, may be done to the test blade.

The constant stropping was beginning to be more irritating than the scratch of the wool blanket on his bed.

Stropping is not used in most modern languages - instead, keywords are reserved words and cannot be used as identifiers.

Upper stropping is the default, quote stropping is optional.

Disposable bladed straights have many of the advantages of straight razors without needing the stropping and honing of ordinary straight razors.

Partly based on the experience of ALGOL 68-R the revised report on ALGOL 68 specified hardware representations for the language, including UPPER stropping.

Stropping is primarily done with straight razors, used for shaving, as these are the thinnest blades in everyday use, and require stropping at each use, due to the thinness of the blade.

Flat ground razors are very stable and as such they can handle tough shaving jobs since they do not easily deform under pressure and they can take rough handling such as heavy stropping and honing.

The term "stropping" arose in ALGOL 60, from "apostrophe", as some implementations of ALGOL 60 used apostrophes around text to indicate boldface, such as to represent the keyword if.

Of these, POINT and UPPER stropping are quite common, while RES stropping is in contradiction to the specification (as there are no reserved words).

After peening, the edge is finished and subsequently maintained by very frequent stropping or honing with a whetstone or rubber (fine-grained for grass, coarser for cereal crops), and peened again as necessary to recover the fineness of the edge.
