crawler
1. A mechanical device for performing a task which
might otherwise be done by a human, e.g. spraying paint on
cars.
See also cybernetics.
2. An IRC or MUD user who is actually a program.
On IRC, typically the robot provides some useful service.
Examples are NickServ, which tries to prevent random users
from adopting nicks already claimed by others, and MsgServ,
which allows one to send asynchronous messages to be
delivered when the recipient signs on. Also common are
"annoybots", such as KissServ, which perform no useful
function except to send cute messages to other people.
Service robots are less common on MUDs; but some others,
such as the "Julia" robot active in 1990--91, have been
remarkably impressive Turing test experiments, able to pass
as human for as long as ten or fifteen minutes of
conversation.
3. spider.

crawling horror (jargon) | crawling horror
n.
Ancient crufty hardware or software that is kept obstinately alive by
forces beyond the control of the hackers at a site. Like dusty deck or {
gonkulator}, but connotes that the thing described is not just an
irritation but an active menace to health and sanity. “Mostly we code new
stuff in C, but they pay us to maintain one big FORTRAN II application from
nineteen-sixty-X that's a real crawling horror....” Compare WOMBAT.
This usage is almost certainly derived from the fiction of H.P. Lovecraft.
Lovecraft may never have used the exact phrase “crawling horror” in his
writings, but one of the fearsome Elder Gods that he wrote extensively
about was Nyarlethotep, who had as an epithet “The Crawling Chaos”.
Certainly the extreme, even melodramatic horror of his characters at the
weird monsters they encounter, even to the point of going insane with fear,
is what hackers are referring to with this phrase when they use it for
horribly bad code. Compare cthulhic.
