BANNER(1)		  BSD General Commands Manual		     BANNER(1)

NAME
     banner — print strings in large letters

SYNOPSIS
     banner [-f fg] [-b bg] [-l] string ...

DESCRIPTION
     banner prints up to 10 chars of each string in large letters on the stan‐
     dard 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.
