Critter Maker

Paint a pixel critter that prints in your terminal, like Unicorn's. Each cell is a quarter of a terminal character, and a character holds one color, so every 2×2 block takes one of the four.

Make It Permanent

1 · Hit Copy Terminal-Ready Print above
2 · In Terminal, type open -e ~/.zshrc and hit enter -- your shell's startup file opens in an editor
3 · Paste at the very bottom, save, close
4 · Open a fresh terminal, and your critter says hi
Just want to see it once? Paste it straight into any terminal. Already printing something at startup (a hook, like Unicorn)? Add the same line there instead.
