I’m using Fedora 10 and am getting an error trying to configure TOIlet:

configure: error: you need libcucul version 0.99.beta10 or later

Whats the best way to go about solving this since I am pretty certain that libcucul was merged into libcaca? (I have the latest version of libcaca)

@ashu,

I’ve updated the faq. Open your ~/.bashrc and change Welcome to line as:

echo "Welcome to"

Is it working good in RHEL5? Should I use the same package for that or not?

@Amit

Try: http://caca.zoy.org/toilet.html

I think figlet is available from EPEL or RPMForege REPO.

Thats cool. I use fedora and do not seem to have both of them in the repos. I could install figlet from the source but am unable to locate the toilet. Could you post the home page of toilet.

That is awesome, while I have used figlet before I have never heard of toilet. Thanks for the article.
