Why does Linux programs use names like daemons and devil files?

There is nothing sinister about 'daemons', they're just programs that run in the background and do useful stuff such as allowing ssh connections (sshd) or run scheduled tasks at a certain time (cron). There are many theories for why they were thus named, and the Wikipedia article on daemons does a good job of discussing them. I've never heard of 'devil files', though, and I'm a pretty experienced Linux user. Perhaps you just misheard something? There is a distribution called Devil Linux, according to Wikipedia, but I wouldn't worry about it. There's nothing inherently satanic about Linux, despite what Microsoft would have you think, heh.
