1. rogue
1. [Unix] n. A
Dungeons-and-Dragons-like game using character graphics, written under BSD
Unix and subsequently ported to other Unix systems. The original BSD
curses(3)
screen-handling package was hacked together by Ken Arnold primarily to
support games, and the development of
rogue(6)
popularized its use; it has since become one of Unix's most important and
heavily used application libraries. Nethack, Omega, Larn, Angband, and an
entire subgenre of computer dungeon games (all known as
‘roguelikes’) all took off from the inspiration provided by
rogue(6);
the popular Windows game Diablo, though graphics-intensive, has very
similar play logic. See also nethack,
moria, Angband. 2. [Usenet] adj. An
ISP which permits net abuse (usually in the form of
spamming) by its customers, or which itself engages
in such activities. Rogue ISPs are sometimes subject to
IDPs or UDPs. Sometimes
deliberately misspelled as “rouge”.
