As someone mentioned before, the default installation includes a program
called kdict, a graphical edition of the internet dictionary program dict.
There's also another program wtf that's also part of the SuSE distribution
that explains some popular but not so serious acronyms you'll encounter
online. Between these two programs, and a good imagination for the rest :-),
you'll be able to figure out almost any acronym you don't know.
