- ack-grep is a command line tool to search through your codebase. 'ack' alias comes in handy when you have a large codebase.
- display-dhammapada is a command line utility to display verses from the Dhammapada. The man-page is self explanatory. cowsay is a utility to render text with ASCII art. (aso see cowthink)
The Dhammapada is an anthology of 423 verses from the Kuddaka Nikaya part of the Theravada Pali Canon. It contains Buddhist ethical and spiritual precepts. One of the translations is by John Richards; the other is an older translation by F. Max Muller.
