With the command lolcat you can color your terminal outputs in a fun way.
However, the original lolcat
command is very slow, but the good news is that there is an alternative: Lolcat CC!
In this video you can see the difference between lolcat
and lolcat-cc
:
To install it, just use git to clone and a compiler: gcc or clang to compile, in addition to GNU Make:
git clone https://github.com/n-ham/lolcat-cc
cd lolcat-cc
make
After compiling, install it on your system, for example:
sudo install -v lolcat-cc /usr/local/bin/
And test using the output of any command for it, examples:
cat main.cpp | lolcat-cc
ls | lolcat-cc
ping -c 4 terminalroot.com | lolcat-cc
For more information use the help:
lolcat-cc -h
