 The forkbomb mentioned at the beginning of this post uses the second function
 syntax. With that understanding, as you can see, using that syntax, it creates
 a function called ``:``.  Now, let's expand this into a much less compressed
-format now by breaking it into multiple lines and renaming the function from
-``:`` to ``foo``

 Now that's much easier to understand. It's fairly clear now that this defines a
 function called ``foo`` that calls iteself (recursing), piping the output of
