At the very least you'd think they'd get C:\> correct, but I guess whoever made that was probably on iOS or Linux.

I wonder what the CLI for "They" does. Pretty odd that it takes 8 arguments, let alone starting with an uppercase letter.

whatever it does, it's being run with stdin redirected from the root / directory, which can't be opened for reading, so it'll actually fail before the program even tries to launch.
