Plenty of easter eggs... Of course, you could just look at the source code, but I had a lot of fun typing in my regular unix commands first. A lot of them were unrecognized, but a few had some funny responses.

Of course, they have these:

make me a sandwich
sudo make me a sandwich

guest@xkcd:/$ vi

You should really use emacs.

guest@xkcd:/$ emacs

You should really use vim.

guest@xkcd:/$ help

That would be cheating!

guest@xkcd:/$ ping

There is another submarine three miles ahead, bearing 225, forty fathoms down.

guest@xkcd:/$ finger

Mmmmmm...

guest@xkcd:/$ top

It's up there --^

guest@xkcd:/$ pwd

You are in a maze of twisty passages, all alike.

guest@xkcd:/$ bash

You bash your head against the wall. It's not very effective.

guest@xkcd:/$ echo

Echo ... echo ... echo ...

guest@xkcd:/$ su

God mode activated. Remember, with great power comes great ... aw, screw it, go have fun.




that's all i've found for now.

Also, when I initially did an ls, there was file called welcome.txt. I did an "rm welcome.txt" to see what happened, and it seems to have deleted it.

EDIT: ok, refreshing the page brings it back.

i really liked "man ls"... I know its the default response for "man *" but i thought it was particularly funny and appropriate for ls.
