NAME
banner — print strings in large letters
SYNOPSIS
|
banner |
[-l] [-b bg] [-f fg] string ... |
DESCRIPTION
banner prints up to 10 chars of each
string in large letters on the standard output.
The options are:
-
-b bg
-
Use bg as the background color (character) rather than the default “ ”.
-
-f fg
-
Use fg as the foreground color (character) rather than the default “#”. If fg is “-”, then the actual letter being printed is used as the foreground color in the same way that LPD does it. The results are quite variable.
-
-l
-
Use the more attractive LPD font instead of the traditional banner font.
EXIT STATUS
The banner utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
