Hi,

If i type "apt-get moo" the cow in apt-get dont look nice. I found a 
better looking cow at: http://apt-get.mine.nu/

It would be nice if you would fix this bad looking cow to this nicer one ;)

Here is my code for the file cmdline/apt-get.cc

// DoMoo - Never Ask, Never Tell                    /*{{{*/
// ---------------------------------------------------------------------
/* */
bool DoMoo(CommandLine &CmdL)
{
  cout <<
     "\n"
     "                     \\_/\n"
     "   m00h  (__)       -(_)-\n"
     "      \\  ~Oo~___     / \\\n"
     "         (..)  |\\\n"
     "   ________|_|_|__________\n"
     "...\"Have you mooed today?\"...\n"
     "\n";
             
  return true;
}


Greetings

Thorsten Sauer

 Unfortunately, that site isn't reachable at the moment, so I can't
check there.

 Who's the author of that cow, and what license does it bear? Ascii art
is serious business too and shouldn't be reused or modified without
permissions neither.

 Thanks in advance for further informations,
Rhonda

Hey, have you mooed today?


This request is absolutely ridiculous!
We are never going to change our cow(s)!
We have to keep a stable interface after all!
I mean: Not again… at least soon.

But tell nobody: It is absolutely secret cow-business.


moo moo moo,
