doge is a simple motd script based on the slightly stupid but very funny [doge meme][doge]. It prints random grammatically incorrect statements that are sometimes based on things from your computer.

For more information about getting a setup like the one in the screenshot, see [this dotfiles repo][shameless].

## Features

  • Randomly placed and colored random strings, complete with broken english.

  • Awesome Shibe in the terminal.

  • Fetching of system data, such as hostname, running processes, current user and $EDITOR.

  • If you have [lolcat][lolcat], you can do this gem: while true; do doge | lolcat -a -d 100 -s 100 -p 1; done (thx [hom3chuk][hom3chuk])

## Installation

pip install doge

If you don’t want to do that for whatever reason, there is a proper setup.py included, so python setup.py install should be just fine for that.

Then, just add a call to doge at the bottom of your shell rc file.

## Notes

doge optionally requires the ps binary on your path to be able to show processes. If you don’t have ps, chances are that doge won’t run anyway. Oh, and you need a terminal that supports 256 colors, but that should not be a problem given that is, you know, 2013.

The terminal Shibe was created with hax0r Gimp skills and [img2xterm][i2x].
