mod: vt. n.

[very common]

1. Short for `modify' or `modification'. Very commonly used -- in fact the full terms are considered markers that one is being formal. The plural `mods' is used esp. with reference to bug fixes or minor design changes in hardware or software, most esp. with respect to patch sets or a diff. See also case mod.
2. Short for modulo but used only for its techspeak sense.
