On screen display of a command

delay: 2d On screen display of a command. $ date|osd_cat This is very useful if you need to show someone some text from a distance. (Like someone standing over your shoulder…)
I’d recommend aliasing it to something like:
alias osd_cat=”osd_cat -o 400 -s 8 -c blue -d 60 -f osd_cat -f -*-bitstream vera sans-*-*-*–200-*-*-*-*-*-*-*”
xosd is the utility that provides osd_cat.
