So "iff" might be widely accepted, I guess.
IMHO some users may appreciate description like one in elisp manual.
The function `accept-process-output' returns non-`nil' if it did
get some output, or `nil' if the timeout expired before output
arrived.
(Now I know the current doc string is all right, please just ignore.)
Thanks.
