Wonder if the author is Greek since φρένο (which would be ‘freno’ in greeklish) means ‘break’ as in deaccelerator
What's in a name?
"Freno" is Spanish for "brake", as in car brake.
Basically we just wanted to call it "throttler" or
"throttled" but both these names are in use by multiple
other repositories and we went looking for something else.
When we looked up the word "freno" in a dictionary, we
found the following sentence:
Echa el freno, magdaleno!
This reminded us of the 80's and that was it.
