From Jargon File (4.3.1, 29 Jun 2001) [jargon]:

  arg /arg/ n. Abbreviation for `argument' (to a function), used so often
     as to have become a new word (like `piano' from `pianoforte'). "The sine
     function takes 1 arg, but the arc-tangent function can take either 1 or
     2 args." Compare {param}, {parm}, {var}.
