1) Language spoken by geeks, such as computer programmers or tech support, which uses standard English words combined with technical jargon, such that the Geeks can understand each other, but to the end user, it sounds like a foreign language.


2) Use of standard English in a formatted text file, such as XML, such that it is difficult to understand, yet it sill uses standard English words, which only Geeks can understand

The guy from the help desk was here to fix your computer. I don't know what was wrong with it. Even though he told me what the problem was, he was speaking Geeklish, and I didn't understand a word.

Greeklish 

Greeklish refers to the blend of English and Greek, in the speech of people who speak parts of two languages, or whose normal language is different from that of the country where they live. Greeklish is not a pidgin language. It is totally informal; there are no hard-and-fast rules. There is no clear demarcation between Greeklish and simple bad Greek or English.
"StAff" for "to stuff" is clear deliberate Greeklish.

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
