smile_me_please

Smile Me Please

Return random MAC Specific? UTF-8 smiles. Useful to add to your prompt, and be able to recognize different terminals easily.

Usage

You can call the command directly and will output a smily. If you pass the -n it will not write the new line character.

$ smile_me_please
:-)
$


$ smile_me_please -n
:-) $

NOTE: I don't know how to put utf-8 characters in README.md or if github is removing them.

Use cases

Make every terminal different and easy to recognice by putting random faces on each on the prompt:

In your .bash_profile, .profile, or whatever you prefer say

export PS1=`smile_me_please -n`$PS1

Or a more complete example that uses PROMPT_COMMAND

export SMILE=`smile_me_please -n`¬
add_smile(){¬
  export PS1="$SMILE $PS1"¬
}¬
PROMPT_COMMAND="add_smile"¬
