Shell Random Greeter

A simple bash script that will generate a random ASCII art -OR- Quote when ran. Looks like this:

Welcome! USER@HOST
Your Current Directory is: $PWD
Time of Terminal Start: (HH:MM:SS)
Default Shell: ($SHELL)

About System:
CPU MODEL: 
Memory Available:
Kernel:
____________________________________

ASCII ART/QUOTE

____________________________________

user@host $

Acts as a minimalist alternative to NeoFetch/pFetch

Installation

Shells supported for automatic installer:

FISH, BASH, ZSH, TCSH, and KSH

Install from Install Script (Mac {Not tested} / Linux):

1. In a terminal, type $ chmod +x install.sh
2. In the same terminal, type: $ ./install and run through Installation Process.
3. Run $ shell-random-greeter or $ ls /usr/bin | grep shell-random-greeter to test if the command copied to the right directory

Manual Install (Linux/Unix Systems)

1. In a terminal type: $ chmod +x shell-random-greeter
2. In the same terminal, type $ sudo cp shell-random-greeter /usr/bin (If not /usr/bin/, then wherever your CLI commands are held).
3. Run $ shell-random-greeter or $ ls /path/to/dir| grep shell-random-greeter to test if the command copied to the right directory

Installing to $SHELL (MANUAL ONLY!)

Installing to any shell:

1. Edit your config file, (looks like .*rc or check your shell's documentation for this)
2. Add shell-random-greeter in it's own line
3. Source it with $ source path/to/config and enjoy!

Post-Customizing 'Shell-Random-Greeter' (For Manual Install only)

!!! You can now edit shell-random-greeter without superuser priviledges! You may configure prompts from ~/.config/shellrandomgreeter/config

---

Known Working Shells/OS support:

Unix Shells:

• ZSH
• BASH
• KSH
• FISH
• TCSH

---

Notes:

• WinBash is sort of buggy, but I'll work it out Windows is depreciated.
• Should work just fine on MacOS-- Since Mac's utilize the ZSH shell and is a UNIX-like OS, but I haven't tested it yet.
• Same goes for any other Unix-Like System. If any issues sprout up, pls post in the Bug Reports. Or email me @westwardfishdme@gmail.com :P

Calling Custom Quotes:

if you would rather call a specific quote, you may use shell-random-greeter [1,2,3....] which will then show that specific art/quote when running the script

Enjoy the script!
