Bash script which Rick Rolls your terminal, with the option to enable indefinite encores for those who desire intense 80's music video appreciation sessions.
To start rick rollin' immediately:
curl https://raw.github.com/keroserene/rickrollrc/master/astley.sh | bash
For most effectiveness, make sure you're on a 256-color terminal. (After all, this is a colorful hobby.) For the basic experience:
./astley.sh
During Rick's performance, if you wish to prevent rude interruptions and signals from things like Ctrl-C, etc. (and replace them with lyrics).
./astley.sh evil
If you really will Never Give You Up, then you should append to $USER's bashrc. (highly recommended)
./astley.sh inject
To go for the gold:
./astley.sh inject evil
Finally, to spread the love, chmod 777 on lulz and display prominently in $HOME.
./lulz
Which does everything. :)
If you've astley-overdosed:
./astley.sh stop
Enjoy! Feel free to fork, rice-out, pull-request, etc.
Kudos to @jart for our lovely hiptext shenanigans ;)
