attitudes
SYNOPSISlart [ -use tool ] [ -bBfFgklp ] <lusername>
DESCRIPTIONlart adjusts the attitudes of those pesky, clueless people who rely
upon their admins for everything from picking their mice off of the
floor to turning on their monitors; namely, the luser(8). Running lart
with the appropriate arguments will cause the specified luser to run
away screaming in agony. Alternatively, you can make the luser buy you
a beer, after killing all of their processes.
OPTIONS-use tool Choose your weapon. If this option is not specified,
the enviroment variable LART is used. If neither is
set, a default value will be used, which is set at com‐
pile time
-b Used to increase the size of your lart-B The BOFH option. Removes a users files and kills all
their processes. If used in conjunction with -p this
will also cause syslog to make entries proving that
<lusername> was the second gunman behind the grassy
knoll
-f Only fake luser's attitude readjustment session. Pro‐
vided primarily for testing purposes. Mutually exclu‐
sive with -B
-F fsck <lusername>
as a raw device. Note that this option has not been
tested, as it is rather difficult to find volunteers
-g Graphic violence. Uses curses to monitor <lusername>
during the beating.

highly recommended. Can only be invoked once per
<lusername>
