A command-line tool to show big messages across the entire screen which can be closed with any key press.
- Scales text
- Supports multiscreen set pu
Finding notifications at the side of your screen can be a pain. It is useful when multitasking but sometimes you want somethign simple.
You can install fullscreen-message using pipx:
pipx install fullscreen-message
Show hello world across the whole screen:
fullscreen-message 'Hello world'If no arguments are given it reads from stdin.
I found a PyPI package called fullscreen-alert which does somethign similar, but it didn't have any documentation and seemed to be a module rather than a command-line tool.
For the shell, you tools like figlet to draw big messages.
I am @readwithai. I create tools for reading, research and agency sometimes using the markdown editor Obsidian.
I also create a stream of tools that are related to carrying out my work.
I write about lots of things - including tools like this - on X. My blog is more about reading and research and agency.
