ASCII art has such an appeal I cannot quite explain... I'm a little younger to have lived the times when it truly proliferated, but in a web so over saturated it's suffocating it feels like a total breather.
Hahaha... ASCII art was the good old BBS days where everything was ASCII... Yay! Its back! Yep I do it like a noob. I use a web site... 🤣 Did not know Figlet was a thing but it is cool. So Toilet is --gay... Now that is funny! 😆 I'm sure some "Karen" out there is going to be butt hurt over that one! Who cares... Lol Thanks for the video.. LLAP 🖖
How about a more expanded tutorial using others such as Neofetch? Also converting png/jpg and getting the art (distro art, i.e.) to format correctly in an editor like Kate, Kwriter, etc.
@@EricMurphyxyz I watched your video. It was good, but did not explain how to make ascii images format correctly inside of a text editor. Upon pasting the art, it becomes smushed and won't display correctly. Thanks for replying.
Also, if you want toilet's filters without actually using another font (you need text as it is), use the "term" font. For example, $ echo Hello, World! | toilet -f term -F gay:border

It definitely has a very comfy early 2000's nostalgia to it
Figlet and Lolcat are all-time classics. I rarely use them, but when I get a pang of nostalgia, well, there it is.
Woah the combination of figlet, the 3d font and lolcat is soooo cool!!!!!
Agreed, it's a very cool effect!
in the 1990s in the BBS's there was a distinction between ascii art and ansi graphics
Good video man, keep it up
Great video! Is there any way to keep the ascii art at the top of the terminal after I execute "clear"?
I hope you start making some blogposts and some art like these there :P
That would make for a pretty cool blog aesthetic I think

I already have a video on configuring neofetch if that's what you mean: ua-cam.com/video/5JvZ6H2ppEI/v-deo.html

useless linux tools? nah, this is more useful to me than sed.
thanks!

"There's not much reason to use Toilet over Figlet unless you want to use the GAY filter that is"
there is figlet.nvim to do this directly in neovim
