Create a shell script would be your first step, and then I suppose there is probably some way to execute the script when the terminal is opened.

I want to spare the board of yet another thread, so I'm bumping this one ^^


Ok so i made a shell script but when i use it it looks like this

Code: Select all

cats@clare:~$ sh bash
/___/
)     (
=     /=
)   (
/     
)     (
/       
       /
__ __/
))
//
((
)
It's glued to the left side =/ how do i make spaces so i can make it look "good" ? =P

you have to place whitespaces at the beginning of a line as escape sequences, try this:

Code: Select all

echo hello
and then:

Code: Select all

echo \ \ \ \ \ hello
and you'll know what I mean...;)
