The command "banner" is a built-in command in Unix-like operating systems that is used to create large, decorative, and ASCII art-style text banners. It takes text input from the user and converts it into a banner format that can be displayed on the terminal. Here is the general format of the "banner" command: ```bash banner [options] [text]
- "-t": Adds a thin border around the banner.
- "-u": Adds an underline to the banner. The "text" argument is the input text that you want to convert into a banner. It can contain letters, numbers, symbols, and spaces. The "banner" command will transform this text into a large banner format using ASCII characters and display it on the terminal. For example, if you run the following command: ```bash
banner Hello, world!
``` You will get the output: ```
###### ####### ## ## ######## #######
## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ##
## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ##
## ## ## ## ## ## ######## ####### ## ##
## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ##
## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ##
###### ####### ### ### ## ####### #### #######
``` This ASCII art-style banner displays the text "Hello, world!" in a large, stylized format. The exact appearance may vary depending on the terminal and font settings.
