## Installation
You can install straight from the [Julia REPL]. Press `]` to enter [pkg mode],
then:
```julia
add Cowsay
```
## Usage
Complete usage info can be found in [the documentation]. Cowsay.jl exports two
functions: `cowsay` and `cowthink`, which print an ASCII cow saying or thinking
a message, respectively.

If you want to use talking cows in your program, use the `cowsaid` and
`cowthunk` functions to get strings of the cow art.
```julia-repl
julia> @info string("\n", cowsaid("And the longhorns lowed him a welcome\nAs a new voice cried from the buckboard"))
┌ Info:
_________________________________________
│ / And the longhorns lowed him a welcome \
│ \ As a new voice cried from the buckboard /
│ -----------------------------------------
│ \ ^__^
│ \ (oo)\_______
│ (__)\ )\/\
│ ||----w |
└ || ||
```

There are also plenty of [unexported Cowfiles] that you can use to customize
your art.
```julia-repl
julia> cowsay("This heifer must be empty\n'Cuz she ain't puttin' out", cow=Cowsay.udder)
____________________________
/ This heifer must be empty \
\ 'Cuz she ain't puttin' out /

You can also change the eyeballs and tongue of your cow.
```julia-repl
julia> cowsay("You better watch your step\nwhen you know the chips are down!", tongue=" U", eyes="00")
