`nyancat -esnf 1` will (quite nicely) display a single frame and then terminate, in a matter that is perfect for generate MOTDs. `nyancat -esnf 10` (for example) will run through the animation (though it may not work perfectly, depending on the size of your terminal and various other things)
Nyancat CLI
Nyancat rendered in your terminal.
Setup
First build the C application:
make && cd src
You can run the C application standalone.
./nyancat
To use the telnet server, you need to add a configuration that runs:
nyancat -t
... to either an inetd or xinetd server. I am using openbsd-inetd, which you must give both arguments (nyancat and -t) to, which I found odd.
