# 1-The first paragraph specifies that the robot called 'webcrawler' has nothing disallowed: it may go anywhere. # 2-The second paragraph indicates that the robot called 'lycra' has all relative URLs starting with '/' disallowed. # Because all relative URL's on a server start with '/', this means the entire site is closed off. # 3-The third paragraph indicates that all other robots should not visit # URLs starting with /tmp or /log. Note the '*' is a special token, # meaning "any other User-agent"; you cannot use wildcard patterns # or regular expressions in either User-agent or Disallow lines.
