BANNER(1) General Commands Manual BANNER(1)
NAME
bannerprint strings in large letters
SYNOPSIS
banner
[-f fg] [-b bg] [-l] 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.
