That's a bit like "Liv Tyler walked into my home, took all her clothes off
and lay on my bed, but I have no clue what she wants me to enter." ;-)

Try this command instead:
$ echo crezvffvba tenagrq | tr '[a-mn-z]' '[n-za-m]'

Lucky you. I had to install a third party package called "Cygwin" before
I could even get it to display the "$" sign, and even then it worked very
poorly.
Cheers,
Mark.
