I’m sure some of you have absolute monstrosities of sigils (I know I do, in my .zshrc alone). Post them without context, and try and guess what other users’s lines are. If you want to provide context or guess, use the markdown editor to spoiler-tag your guesses and explanations!

    Nice work! I’ve definitely had some fun with convert recently, as you might tell from the community banner.

    It is an image showing the script I used to create it 😛.

      That’s certainly a script! 😅

        It’s a little more complex than needed, for the pixelated background I used xcolor names and then modulated them darker, but then relented and used hexcodes for the text in the foreground.

          It’s very impressive! I try to write legible code first, and if my shell scripts get too complex, I move on to another tool typically:

          • C# scripting
          • Python
          • PowerShell
          • Node.js

          That might be why I don’t have many cryptic examples.
