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.
