all-elbowsSaid of a {TSR} (terminate-and-stay-resident) {mess-dos} program, such as the N pop-up calendar and calculator utilities that circulate on {BBS} systems: unsociable. Used to describe a program that {rude}ly steals the resources that it needs without considering that other TSRs may also be resident. One particularly common form of rudeness is lock-up due to programs fighting over the keyboard interrupt. [{Jargon File}] (1995-02-21)
