Moreover, it will also kill all the user's shells, except maybe their
login shell if it happens be named csh.  It will also kill their
window system if they use one, preferably leaving their terminal
in an unusable state.

Translation: "zot" is the Dutch word for "fool".

Ignore in particular any messages "sh: cut: not found" and "sh: paste:
not found".  Those merely indicate you live in BSD land and you knew
that already.

Have a nice day,
