# Nyancat CLI
Nyancat rendered in your terminal.

## Setup
First build the C application:
make && cd src
You can run the C application standalone. It will prompt you to select a color mode.
./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.
