NAME
 banner — print strings in large letters
SYNOPSIS
| banner | [-l] [-b bg] [-f fg] string ... | 
 
DESCRIPTION
 banner prints up to 10 chars of each 
string in large letters on the standard output.
The options are:
- 
-b bg
- 
Use bg as the background color (character) rather than the default “ ”.
- 
-f fg
- 
Use fg as the foreground color (character) rather than the default “#”. If fg is “-”, then the actual letter being printed is used as the foreground color in the same way that LPD does it. The results are quite variable.
- 
-l
- 
Use the more attractive LPD font instead of the traditional banner font.
 
EXIT STATUS
 The banner utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
