doge 3.7.0

wow very terminal doge

doge

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

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, you can do this gem: while true; do doge | lolcat -a -d 100 -s 100 -p 1; done (thx hom3chuk)
• stdin support: ls /usr/bin | doge will doge-print some of the executables found in /usr/bin. wow. There are also multiple command line switches that control filtering and statistical frequency of words. See doge -h, wow.

Installation

• pipx install doge (Recommended, needs pipx.)
• shiv doge -c doge -o doge.pyz
• pex doge -c doge -o doge.pyz
• Install with pip, see A quick-and-dirty guide on how to install packages for Python for more information.
  • python3 -m pip install doge

If you don't want to do that for whatever reason, there is a proper pyproject.toml included, so python -m pip install -e . should be just fine for that.

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

Notes

You need a terminal that supports 256 colors running on a system that supports unicode.

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