Linux is fun! Huh. OK, so you don’t believe me. Mind me at the end of this article you will have to believe that Linux is actually a fun box.

1. Run a train in the terminal

command : sl (Steam Locomotive)

The sl command allows you to run a train in your terminal.

install : $ sudo yum install sl [On CentOS/RHEL ]

Once done, you can simply type in the following in the terminal to get started:

sl

command: #sl -F

this should make the locomotive get wings to fly off from the terminal window!

Command: Cowsay

install : $ yum install cowsay [On CentOS/RHEL ]

#cowsay “ Helloo cowsay”

output:

Let there be fire

Keep your fire extinguisher handy because now you are going to start a fire in your terminal!

install : yum install aalib[On CentOS/RHEL ]

Once done start a fire in your terminal by entering:

# aafire -driver curses

fortune

you just need to type “fortune” on your terminal and press enter. The terminal will display a random sentence

figlet

FIGlet is a simple command-line utility for creating ASCII text banners or large letters out of ordinary text

install : yum install figlet

figlet command always need input ,lets give fortune command as input

thankyou..
