LART(1M) MISC. REFERENCE MANUAL PAGES LART(1M)  

NAME 
lart - Luser Attitude Readjustment Tool - use a lart to adjust lusers'
attitudes 

SYNOPSIS 
lart [ -use tool ] [ -bBfFgklp ] <lusername> 

DESCRIPTION 
lart 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 compile 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 con- junction 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 ses- sion. Provided primarily for
testing pur- poses. Mutually exclusive 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. 

-k
Kill. A rather permanent option, and as such is not highly recommended. Can
only be invoked once per <lusername> 

-p
See -B 

SEE ALSO 
sysadmin(1), guru(8), luser(8)
