Use your Linux terminal to celebrate a banner year
|
||
======
|
||
Need make sure your command is heard? Pipe it to a banner and it won't be missed.

Hello again for another installment in our 24-day-long Linux command-line toys advent calendar. If this is your first visit to the series, you might be asking yourself what a command-line toy even is. We’re figuring that out as we go, but generally, it could be a game, or any simple diversion that helps you have fun at the terminal.
|
||
|
||
Some of you will have seen various selections from our calendar before, but we hope there’s at least one new thing for everyone.
|
||
|
||
Today's toy if **figlet** , a utility for printing text in banner form across your Linux terminal.
|
||
|
||
You'll likely find **figlet** packaged in your standard repositories. For me on Fedora, this meant installation was as simple as:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ sudo dnf install figlet
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
After that, simply use the program's name to invoke it. You can either use it interactively, or, pipe some text to it, as below:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
echo "Hello world" | figlet
|
||
_ _ _ _ _ _
|
||
| | | | ___| | | ___ __ _____ _ __| | __| |
|
||
| |_| |/ _ \ | |/ _ \ \ \ /\ / / _ \| '__| |/ _` |
|
||
| _ | __/ | | (_) | \ V V / (_) | | | | (_| |
|
||
|_| |_|\___|_|_|\___/ \_/\_/ \___/|_| |_|\__,_|
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
There are a number of different font options available for **figlet**. To see the options available to you, try the command **showfigfonts**. For me, this displayed over a dozen. I've copied out a few of my favorites below.

|
||
|
||
You can find out more about **figlet** on the project's [homepage][1]. The version I downloaded was made available as open source under an MIT license.
|
||
|
||
You'll find that **figlet** isn't the only banner-printer available for the Linux terminal. Another option that you may choose to check out is [toilet][2], which comes with its own set of ASCII-art style printing options.
|
||
|
||
Do you have a favorite command-line toy that you we should have included? Our calendar is basically set for the remainder of the series, but we'd still love to feature some cool command-line toys in the new year. Let me know in the comments below, and I'll check it out. And let me know what you thought of today's amusement.
|
||
|
||
Be sure to check out yesterday's toy, [Take a swim at your Linux terminal with asciiquarium][3], and come back tomorrow for another!
