Holy crap, xkcd wins the internet (again!)

The commands can be found in here. I'll parse it later, unless someone can link something that already has.

Wow, it supports:
  • C-a (beginning-of-line)
  • C-e (end-of-line)
  • up-arrow, down-arrow history
  • has a subset of adventure (encodes state into an int and two booleans (alive and lamp), comes complete with grue)
  • Code: Select all

    find kitten
    sudo
    apt-get
    irc
One-liners to follow.

Also, try the commands 'asl' for one of a set of random replies and 'sudo apt-get moo' for an ascii art cow. (Yes, I've been reading through the js)

For the rest of your april fool's day browsing, here's a pretty comprehensive listing:

I particularly like the google search result response time units. Ex: femtogalactic years
