If you wanted to have colors in the bash output (including the colors in PS1-4), don’t you keep wondering how the color code would look on the terminal. So, I wrote this small script to show the complete color codes. This is how the output would look:

And here is the script:

let a cow tell you your fortune

2010-06-03 1 min read Bash Linux

Here\’s something that I saw on commandlinefu yesterday. That sent me thinking about some command to have the cow file picked randomly 🙂 So, here\’s the original command from the commandlinefu:

    <td>
      <div class="text codecolorer">
        $ fortune | <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/cowsay" title="Cowsay" rel="homepage" href="http://www.nog.net/%7Etony/warez/cowsay.shtml">cowsay</a> -f tux
      </div>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>
