Not sure what you're talking about.
Do you mean the bash prompt in your terminal?
If so, you just have to tinker with your .bashrc file.

In this case you can use your own language, we will find out what you mean

Re: Text in crunchbang

You can see a list of the commands you entered with

history

I'm not sure if there's a way to view scrolled text.  You can probably set it up to record to a log file which you could then re-read, but I don't think this is done by default.

Hope that helps

Re: Text in crunchbang

@bacon: That's probably the better way to do it, yes.  Alternatively piping it into a textfile:

history > history.txt

Re: Text in crunchbang

Re: Text in crunchbang

i forget, what does statler have originally in it's motd?  surely not the whole cowsay... maybe just that cleaner fotune thing (the non-gui one) i forget the name of.   ...?

or... wasnt there a first-run script...?  ah yes, it's still there, commented out, in my old ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh

cb-welcome --firstrun

that stuff maybe?

AFAIK, there never was a non-GUI version of cb-fortune...always been a notification popup with a Statler icon.

It would help if jtouso would respond...
