   • 1999, Marine Crewman's Handbook: Field Manual 55-501‎, US Dept of the Army:

     Never cut a line or leave the end of a line dangling loose without a whipping to prevent it from unlaying. A line without a whipping will unlay of its own accord. A frayed line is a painful sight to a good seaman. Whenever a line or hawser has to be cut, whippings should be put on first. Put one whipping on each side of the cut. To prevent fraying, a temporary or plain whipping can be put on with any type of cordage, even with rope yarn.

6. (bookbinding) The sewing of the edges of single leaves in sections by overcasting the thread.
