[Linux] Fun packages (not used for work)

environment

This time I used Ubuntu, but other distributions should be fine too

cat /etc/os-release PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 24.04 LTS"

sl

The CLI screen shows a locomotive running. The package
man page
has only one basic command: "sl".

sudo apt install sl sl

Or with full options below

sl -alFe

- Flight mode
- Mini steam locomotive
- Press Ctrl+C to stop
- Runaway locomotive mode (passengers will say HELP!)
can be enabled.

oneko

Make cats appear on the CLI (not just cats)

sudo apt install oneko oneko

man page

oneko -dog

dog

oneko-sakura

CC sa◯ et al

oneko -tomoyo

To◯yo

oneko -tora

Tiger 🐅

bb

A package that can depict images like a movie using only text.

sudo apt install bb bb

man page

xcowsay

cowsay
A man page that allows you to make a graphical cow say whatever you want by specifying your favorite image file.

sudo apt install xcowsay xcowsay test

You can specify the image file by specifying the path with the "--image" option

xcowsay --image=/path/to/image/cow.png Wow

Maybe I'll write again when I have more
