You are a very, very bad man. That is all.

Hmm - would 'Rover' be gzip or tar?

I'd be more inclined to class Rover as some sort of signal. I'm tempted by SIGXCPU or one of its friends – Rover does after all bring people to a halt by limiting one of their available resources! – but since it usually captures rather than kills, I suppose I have to say Rover is SIGSTOP.
