I've decided my MOTD has gotten stale. What better to do with your free time than to look up escape sequences?
Bringing annoyances to the terminal, one color code at a time.

An alternative for chucklesome MOTDs that I setup on one of my boxes.
Setup a crontab entry for root with your preferred times (every 5 minutes for me) and run the following command:
/usr/games/fortune | /usr/bin/cowsay > /etc/motd
You will need fortune and cowsay installed of course.
This'll certainly make my MOTD much more interesting. Fortune + Cowsay ftw :D
cannot seem to make my motd the way you have it, which i think its kewl nice. how do i make my like NOT boring lol cant seem to find the right input for this function.
thank you
