Print an ASCII picture of a cow saying/thinking message

• message::AbstractString: Tell the cow what to say

Keywords

• cow=default: Specify a particular function handle to print the ASCII art. See below for more details on what constitutes a valid function handle.
• eyes::AbstractString="oo": A two-character string to be drawn in for the eyes. Not all cowfiles support this, though.

julia> cowsay("Have you mooed today?")
 _______________________
< Have you mooed today? >

         \  (oo)\_______
            (__)\       )\/\
                ||----w |

cowsaid(message::AbstractString; kwargs...)
cowthunk(message::AbstractString; kwargs...)

Constructs cow art and returns it as a string instead of printing it. See cowsay for implementation details.

Example

julia> cowsaid("Have you mooed today?")
" _______________________\n< Have you mooed today? >\n -----------------------\n        \\   ^__^\n         \\  (oo)\\_______\n            (__)\\       )\\/\\\n                ||----w |\n                ||     ||\n"

julia> cowthunk("Have I mooed today?")
" _____________________\n( Have I mooed today? )\n ---------------------\n        o   ^__^\n         o  (oo)\\_______\n            (__)\\       )\\/\\\n                ||----w |\n                ||     ||\n"
