Cacholote
The cacholotes are four species of relatively large, heavy-billed Furnariids in the genus Pseudoseisura. They are found in shrubby habitats in the South American countries of Brazil, Bolivia, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay. They are essentially brown (ranging from deep rufous to pale gray-brown depending on species), and all are crested to some extent.

gollark: Just add `\n` to the end of `local pattern = "\n?%-%-%[%[ SIGNATURE: (.-) %]%]%-%-"`.
gollark: It appears to not remove the newline after the signature comment.
gollark: Maybe it's some whitespace which isn't being stripped properly.
gollark: I could assimilate it into potatOS if it's good then.
gollark: So as of now all privileged execution files/debugging disks are directly signed with the potatOS DSK.
