How do I display a terminal banner after clearing the terminal


so I set up my terminal banner with figlet and I really like it. But it will only be displayed after opening a new terminal. My question is: Can I somehow display a banner after I hit "clear"?


Solution

  • You'll have to edit your .bashrc file and add the following line:

    alias clear='clear && (the figlet command you use)' 
    

    Then it will start up every time you type clear.
