+This is the type for the @uref{https://github.com/skeeto/endlessh,
+Endlessh} program that delays ssh clients for days at a time by
+@emph{very slowly} sending a random and endless SSH banner.  The smart
+hacker will put endlessh running on port 22, and let crackers get stuck
+in this tarpit.  This lets your real ssh server run more securely on a
