>>Not sure where it originated from, but it's been used since I've worked with Fox in the early 80's to mean a small section of code or a 'code snippet.' I think the term itself (outside of programming) means: a small piece of anything including a piece of something that has been snipped off or cut out.

And it led to an entire religious war over snippetless vs. snippetized code. ;-)
