Cool things to do on terminal

Terminal on Linux ( and MAC ) is generally used to carry out advanced and complex tasks. Just a line of command , and you are good to go !

Well , besides , are there any cool , funny things you could do on terminal ?

Yes ! Let's try some !

* Train on terminal :

Have you ever wondered if a train could run across your terminal ?

Procedure :

sudo apt-get install sl

now , just type sl , and you'll see an express train moving across your terminal.

A cow ?

The xcowsay is another terminal command that echos what ever is typed on the screen. But , the driving part here is that a cow pops up the screen and says this !

Procedure :

sudo apt-get install xcowsay

command :

xcowsay " hello " ;

* Aview

This command is pretty interesting. It prints any image of your choice in ASCII format.

Procedure :

sudo apt-get install aview

command :

asciiview image_name.jpg/png -driver curses

* Oneko

This is probably the most cutest command !

This command drops a small , little rabbit on your screen that keeps chasing your cursor.

Procedure :

sudo apt-get install oneko

command :

oneko

* Xeyes

The command brings a small tab with two eyes that follow your cursor.

command :

xeyes
