Making Bash Output Colorful Rainbows with lolcat

This article introduces how to make Linux Bash command line output colorful rainbows with lolcat.

Installation (Ruby)

sudo gem install lolcat

Usage Example

cat ~/.bashrc | head -100 | lolcat

It works well with WSL’s bash prompt, but feels awkward in ConEmu. You might be able to configure color settings there.

There’s not much practical use for this.
