Boxing yourself in on the Linux command line
======
Learn how to use the boxes utility to draw shapes with characters at the Linux terminal and make your words stand out.

It's the holiday season, and every Linux terminal user deserves a little gift. It doesn't matter whether you celebrate Christmas, another holiday, or nothing at all. So I'm gathering together a collection of 24 Linux command-line toys over the next few weeks for you to enjoy and share with your friends. Let's have a little fun and add a little joy to a month that, at least here in the northern hemisphere, can be a little bit cold and dreary.
Chances are, there will be a few that you've heard of before. But, hopefully, we'll all have a chance to learn something new. (I know I did when doing some research to make sure I could make it to 24.)
The first of our 24 Linux terminal toys is a program called boxes. Why start with boxes? Because it's going to be hard to wrap up all of our other command-line presents to you without it!
On my Fedora machine, boxes wasn't installed by default, but it was in my normal repositories, so installing it was as simple as
```
$ sudo dnf install boxes -y
```
If you're on a different distribution, there's a good chance you'll find it in your default repositories as well.
Boxes a utility I really wish I had in my high school and college computer science courses, where well-intentioned teachers insisted I provide very specific looking comment at the beginning of every source file, function, code block, etc.
```
/***************/
/* Hello World */
/***************/
```
It turns out, once you add a few lines of text inside, formatting them can get, well, tedious. Enter boxes. Boxes is a simple utility for surrounding a block of text with an ASCII art-style box. It comes with defaults for source code commenting, as well as other options.
It's really easy to use. Using pipes, I can push a short greeting into a box.
```
$ cat greeting.txt | boxes -d diamonds -a c
```
Which will give us the output as follows:
```
       /\          /\          /\
    /\//\\/\    /\//\\/\    /\//\\/\
 /\//\\\///\\/\//\\\///\\/\//\\\///\\/\
//\\\//\/\\///\\\//\/\\///\\\//\/\\///\\
\\//\/                            \/\\//
 \/                                  \/
 /\      I'm wishing you all a       /\
//\\     joyous holiday season      //\\
\\//     and a Happy Gnu Year!      \\//
 \/                                  \/
 /\                                  /\
//\\/\                            /\//\\
\\///\\/\//\\\///\\/\//\\\///\\/\//\\\//
 \/\\///\\\//\/\\///\\\//\/\\///\\\//\/
    \/\\//\/    \/\\//\/    \/\\//\/
       \/          \/          \/
```
Or perhaps something more fun, like:
```
echo "I am a dog" | boxes -d dog -a c
```
Which will, unsurprisingly, give you the following:
```
          __   _,--="=--,_   __
         /  \."    .-.    "./  \
        /  ,/  _   : :   _  \/` \
        \  `| /o\  :_:  /o\ |\__/
         `-'| :="~` _ `~"=: |
            \`     (_)     `/
     .-"-.   \      |      /   .-"-.
.---{     }--|  /,.-'-.,\  |--{     }---.
 )  (_)_)_)  \_/`~-===-~`\_/  (_(_(_)  (
(              I am a dog               )
 )                                     (
'---------------------------------------'
```
Boxes comes with [lots of options][1] for padding, position, and even processing regular expressions. You can learn more about boxes on the [project's homepage][2], or head over to [GitHub][3] to download the source code or contribute your own box. In fact, if you're looking for an idea to submit, I've got an idea for you: why not a holiday present?
```

Do you have a favorite command-line toy that you think I ought to profile? The calendar for this series is mostly filled out but I've got a few spots left. Let me know in the comments below, and I'll check it out. If there's space, I'll try to include it. If not, but I get some good submissions, I'll do a round-up of honorable mentions at the end.
Or check out tomorrow's command-line toy, [Drive a locomotive through your Linux terminal][4].

神奇的 Linux 命令行字符形状工具 boxes
======
本文将教你如何在 Linux 命令行终端中使用 boxes 工具绘制字符形状图形来包装你的文字让其更突出。
![](https://opensource.com/sites/default/files/styles/image-full-size/public/uploads/linux-toy-boxes.png?itok=Rii6nT5P)
现在正值假期,每个 Linux 终端用户都该得到一点礼物。无论你是庆祝圣诞节还是庆祝其他节日,或者什么节日也没有,都没有关系。我将在接下来的几周内介绍 24 个 Linux 命令行小玩具,供你把玩或者与朋友分享。让我们享受乐趣,让这个月过得快乐一点,因为对于北半球来说,这个月有点冷并且沉闷。
对于我要讲述的内容,可能你之前就有些了解。但是,我还是希望我们都有机会学到一些新的东西(我做了一点研究,确保可以分享 24 个小玩具)。
24 个 Linux 终端小玩具中的第一个是叫做 boxes 的小程序。为何从 boxes 说起呢?因为在没有它的情况下很难将所有其他命令礼物包装起来!
在我的 Fedora 机器上,默认没有安装 boxes 程序,但它在我的普通仓库中可以获取到,所以用如下命令就可安装:
```
$ sudo dnf install boxes -y
```
如果你在使用其他 Linux 发行版,一般也都可以在默认仓库中找到 boxes。
Boxes 是我真正希望在高中和大学计算机课程中就使用的实用程序,因为善意的老师要求我在每个源文件、函数、代码块等开头添加一些具体的评论信息。
```
/***************/
/* Hello World */
/***************/
```
事实证明,一旦你需要在框内添加几行文字,并且格式化的将它们统一风格就会变得很乏味。而 boxes 是一个简单实用程序,它使用 ASCII 艺术风格的字符形状框来包围文本。其字符形状默认风格是源代码注释风格,但也提供了一些其他选项。
它真的很容易使用。使用管道,便可以将一个简短问候语塞进字符形状盒子里。
```
$ cat greeting.txt | boxes -d diamonds -a c
```
上面的命令输出结果如下:
```
       /\          /\          /\
    /\//\\/\    /\//\\/\    /\//\\/\
 /\//\\\///\\/\//\\\///\\/\//\\\///\\/\
//\\\//\/\\///\\\//\/\\///\\\//\/\\///\\
\\//\/                            \/\\//
 \/                                  \/
 /\      I'm wishing you all a       /\
//\\     joyous holiday season      //\\
\\//     and a Happy Gnu Year!      \\//
 \/                                  \/
 /\                                  /\
//\\/\                            /\//\\
\\///\\/\//\\\///\\/\//\\\///\\/\//\\\//
 \/\\///\\\//\/\\///\\\//\/\\///\\\//\/
    \/\\//\/    \/\\//\/    \/\\//\/
       \/          \/          \/
```
或者玩点更有趣的,比如:
```
echo "I am a dog" | boxes -d dog -a c
```
不要惊讶,它将会输出如下:
```
          __   _,--="=--,_   __
         /  \."    .-.    "./  \
        /  ,/  _   : :   _  \/` \
        \  `| /o\  :_:  /o\ |\__/
         `-'| :="~` _ `~"=: |
            \`     (_)     `/
     .-"-.   \      |      /   .-"-.
.---{     }--|  /,.-'-.,\  |--{     }---.
 )  (_)_)_)  \_/`~-===-~`\_/  (_(_(_)  (
(              I am a dog               )
 )                                     (
'---------------------------------------'
```
Boxes 程序提供了[很多选项][1] 用于填充、定位甚至处理正则表达式。你可以在其 [项目主页][2] 上了解更多有关 boxes 的信息,或者转到 [GitHub][3] 去下载源代码或者贡献你自己的盒子形状。说到此,如果你正在寻找贡献的好点子,我已经有了一个想法:为什么不贡献一个节日礼物盒子?
```

Boxes 是基于 GPLv2 许可证的开源项目。
你有特别喜欢的命令行小玩具需要我介绍的吗?这个系列要介绍的小玩具大部分已经有了落实,但还预留了几个空位置。如果你有特别想了解的可以评论留言,我会查看的。如果还有空位置,我会考虑介绍它的。即使要介绍的小玩具已经有 24 个了,但如果我得到了一些很好的意见,我会在最后做一些有价值的提及。
你可以通过[ Drive a locomotive through your Linux terminal][4] 来查看明天会介绍的命令行小玩具。
