Description Colin Watson 2003-01-01 02:26:43 AEDT 
$ ssh-copy-id
  Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal.
  ssh: umask 077; test -d .ssh || mkdir .ssh ; cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys: Name
or service not known
  Now try logging into the machine, with "ssh ''", and check in:
  
    .ssh/authorized_keys
  
  to make sure we haven't added extra keys that you weren't expecting.

I'll attach a patch in a moment to make it display usage output instead when
invoked like this.
