troglodyte n.

[Commodore] 1. A hacker who never leaves his cubicle. The term

`gnoll' (from Dungeons & Dragons) is also reported. 2. A

curmudgeon attached to an obsolescent computing environment. The

combination `ITS troglodyte' was flung around some during the

Usenet and email wringle-wrangle attending the 2.x.x revision of

the Jargon File; at least one of the people it was intended to

describe adopted it with pride.
