Entry
Meaning
User-agent: *
Disallow:
The asterisk (*) in the User-agent field is shorthand for "all robots". Because nothing is disallowed, everything is allowed.
User-agent: *
Disallow: /cgi-bin/
Disallow: /tmp/
Disallow: /private/
In this example, all robots can visit every directory except the three mentioned.
User-agent: BadBot
Disallow: /
In this case, the BadBot robot is not allowed to see anything. The slash is shorthand for "all directories"

The User Agent can be any unique substring, and robots are not supposed to care about capitalization.
User-agent: BadBot
Disallow: /

User-agent: *
Disallow: /private/

The blank line indicates a new "record" - a new user agent command.

BadBot should uts go away. All other robots can see everything except the "private" folder.
User-agent: WeirdBot
Disallow: /tmp/
Disallow: /private/
Disallow: /links/listing.html

User-agent: *
Disallow: /tmp/
Disallow: /private/

This keeps the WeirdBot from visiting the listing page in the links directory, the tmp directory and the private directory.

All other robots can see everything except the tmp and private directories.

If you think this is inefficient, you're right!
