lolcat tricks and fun

In case you have ever wondered what it would look like to have all of your favourite console output piped through lolcat(6) πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ, here is a nice example

required (one of *sh is enough)

  • Open Source OS
  • sh
  • csh
  • ksh
  • zsh
  • bash
  • fish
  • syntax skills on piping I/O
  • love of colours
  • typing skills
  • sense of humour

typing
man lolcat

...will get you the standard sh output delimited by the man command itself. This means that I used a simple trick to get all of my output piped through lolcat

ssh -Xv -p65534 -l userid |lolcat

This command syntax gets all of my commands in that ssh session piped through lolcat, creating an awsome rainbow colour galore

notes

  • ssh secure session piped through lolcat gets you a slower output, compliments of the inner workings of lolcat. Feel free to optimize the program and release the patches if the lowerspeed irks you.
  • test the speed by doing
  • ls -lR ~ and compare that in a standard ssh sessios without full lolcat pipe
  • I used the -X switch because I also start X programs from this shell (which I run in Xorg {it also works in wayland})
  • I use the -v switch because I love log messages of ssh
  • I watch the output on a large TV also, because lolcat(6) πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ is that awsome

man lolcat piped through lolcat(6) πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ

Alt...man lolcat piped through lolcat(6) πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ

    ... [SENSITIVE CONTENT]

    I’ve implemented posix_spawn_file_actions_addclosefrom_np for NetBSD, and I’ve even written a test for it using NetBSD’s testing framework! Now to see about actually running that test and writing a man page, so I can submit the patch next week.

        Lenovo
        TIl about an interesting OS option by Lenovo, on their notebook computers. Logical yet interesting and expected

        You get an *Open Source* OS by default from Lenovo. No more win64 as default

        If you want closed source you have to **ask** for it and pay the _hefty premium_ that microSoft's microslop demands, for their LLM infected, malware like OS. Lenovo wants to sell it's notebooks for the best price possible if you want an OS, and microsoft does not meet those demands anymore (for a while)

          I'm learning to be IDE-independent and appreciate more. After a bunch of hunting for one failing file per each rebuild I came up with a magical solution. The incantation is:

          find . -name '*.qml' | xargs sed -i 's/\(import [A-Za-z0-9.]*\)[ ]*[0-9.]*/\1/g'

          Which translates to "please remove all versions from import statements in my QML files"
