while date +%s | figlet | lolcat ; do sleep 1 ; clear ; done # Watch the Unix clock in style with figlet and lolcat. Tonight it passes over 1555555555 seconds.
@climagic Without flickering (don't restart lolcat):
clear; (while date +%s | figlet & do sleep 1; clear; done) | lolcat
Strangely, this doesn't work (but does with cat instead of figlet):
clear; (while date +%s & do sleep 1; clear; done) | figlet | lolcat
@climagic
Try toilet for even more fancy effects.
