[5] : Jargon File (4.3.1, 29 Jun 2001)
toggle vt. to change a bit from whatever state it is in to the other
   state; to change from 1 to 0 or from 0 to 1. this comes from `toggle
   switches', such as standard light switches, though the word `toggle'
   actually refers to the mechanism that keeps the switch in the position
   to which it is flipped rather than to the fact that the switch has two
   positions. there are four things you can do to a bit: set it force it
   to be 1, clear or zero it, leave it alone, or toggle it.
   mathematically, one would say that there are four distinct
   boolean-valued functions of one boolean argument, but saying that is
   much less fun than talking about toggling bits.
