figlet VS hollywood

Figlet: makes big text with ascii art. http://www.figlet.org/

Need to change font, size, italics? - Not a problem. The tool knows how to do this simply with argulet.

figlet is the classic tool to generate these, toilet is a slightly more modern reimplementation with some added features (like color)

I love this and I'm going to use it for fancy comments in code and in the browser console. It'd be really cool if you could integrate something like http://www.figlet.org/ for inserting ASCII text art.

I wish I had known about this tool when I building this little browser game https://replit.com/@aMoniker/Gush because all the levels & game objects are generated from multiline strings of ascii symbols, and it just took too long to do manually.

Tip: use figlet next time.

Terminal programs: Neofetch (Top left), Figlet (Top right), Ranger (Bottom left), Neovim (Bottom right)

I'm looking for dumb, useless and fun cli tools like cowsay or Hollywood

One example software project is hollywood. A tiny tool which turns your terminal into a Hollywood style real time hacking scene:

Probably hollywood

https://github.com/dustinkirkland/hollywood for anyone wondering

But the screen you're looking at is just the hollywood program, which just runs a bunch of programs with heavy output to simulate the ridiculous cliches of what hacking looks like in movies.

For those that need it - there are several scripts like Hollywood [ https://github.com/dustinkirkland/hollywood ] that just lays on top in your terminal pushing out nonsense and others that are more realistic that does the same. I mean Hollywood doesn't look the least bit real so might only work if your boss is thick
