-@cindex overview
-
-@command{ponysay} displays an image of a My Little Pony pony saying a message provided
-by the user in a terminal, or a quote from the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
-(MLP:FiM). Historically @command{ponysay} was a wrapper for cowsay, but has since
-version 2.1 become an independent reimplementation of @command{cowsay}.
-
-If a message is not provided, e.g. by piping, it accepts standard input. The pony
-quoting the given message is printed on standard output.
-
-@command{ponythink} is to @command{ponysay} as @command{cowthink} is to
-@command{cowsay}.
-
-@command{ponysay} is generally used to decorate your terminal with a random pony, when
-you start the terminal. But if you know anypony how does like ponies [fat chance] you
-can always make screen-shots of @command{ponysay --q} executions and communication that
-way over e-mail.

-@node Invoking ponysay
-@chapter Invoking @command{ponysay}
-@cindex invoking
-@cindex options
-@cindex arguments
-@pindex @command{ponythink}
-
-The format for running the @command{ponysay} program is:
-
-@example
-ponysay [@var{option}...] [--] [@var{message}]
-ponythink [@var{option}...] [--] [@var{message}]
-@end example
-
-Running @command{ponysay} will print a speech balloon, @command{ponythink} will
-print a thought balloon. Otherwise @command{ponysay} and @command{ponythink} is
-the same thing.
-
-@command{ponysay} supports the following options:
-
-@table @option
-
-@item --
-@opindex @option{--}
-Parse the following arguments as parts of @code{@var{message}}.
-
-@item -h
-@itemx --help
-@opindex @option{-h}
-@opindex @option{--help}
-Show summary of options.
-
-@item -v
-@itemx --verion
-@opindex @option{-v}
-@opindex @option{--version}
-Show version of program.
-
-@item -f PONY
-@itemx --file PONY
-@itemx --pony PONY
-@opindex @option{-f}
-@opindex @option{--file}
-@opindex @option{--pony}
-Specify the pony that should printed, this can either be a file name or a pony
-name printed by @command{ponysay -l}. This option can be used multiple times to
-specify a set of ponies from which one will be selected randomly. If no pony is
-specified one will be selected randomly.
-
-@cindex @command{util-say}
-@cindex .png
-@cindex png images
-@cindex images, png
-@cindex portable network graphics
-If you have @command{util-say} installed, you can use .png-files as the arguments
-for this options.
-
-In versions earlier than version 2.0, the if the pony were a file name it had to
-include a `@code{/}'. This is not longer required and any existing pony name
-supersedes file names.
-
-@item -F PONY
-@itemx ++file PONY
-@itemx ++pony PONY
-@opindex @option{-F}
-@opindex @option{++file}
-@opindex @option{++pony}
-Just as @option{-F}, but it uses extra (non-MLP:FiM) ponies instead of standard
-(MLP:FiM) ponies
-
-@item -q PONY
-@itemx --quote PONY
-@opindex @option{-q}
-@opindex @option{--quote}
-@cindex quotes
-@cindex pony quotes
-By using this option, a pony will be printed with quotes from her in My Little Pony:
-Friendship is Magic. The pony will be selected randomly, unless at least one pony
-is added as an argument to @option{-q}. If one or more ponies are added as an argument
-to @option{-q}, the pony will be selected randomly from that set of ponies.
-This option requires the extension @command{ponyquotes4ponysay}, which is included
-by default since version 1.2.
-
-The argument can be a file name, but only if it ends with @file{.pony}.
-
-@item --f [PONY...]
-@itemx --files [PONY...]
-@itemx --ponies [PONY...]
-@opindex @option{--f}
-@opindex @option{--files}
-@opindex @option{--ponies}
-Variadic variant of @option{-f}, meaning that all arguments added after this one
-will parsed as an argument to this option. Additionally, those options are added
-to @option{-f}.
-
-@item --F [PONY...]
-@itemx ++files [PONY...]
-@itemx ++ponies [PONY...]
-@opindex @option{--F}
-@opindex @option{++files}
-@opindex @option{++ponies}
-Variadic variant of @option{-F}, meaning that all arguments added after this one
-will parsed as an argument to this option. Additionally, those options are added
-to @option{-F}.
-
-An important feature of this options, is that you can but it in the end of the
-command line, without any argument to get a random non-MLP:FiM pony.
-
-@item --q [PONY...]
-@itemx --quotes [PONY...]
-@opindex @option{--q}
-@opindex @option{--quotes}
-@cindex quotes
-@cindex pony quotes
-Variadic variant of @option{-q}, meaning that all arguments added after this one
-will parsed as an argument to this option. Additionally, those options are added
-to @option{-q}.
-
-An important feature of this options, is that you can but it in the end of the
-command line, without any argument to get a quote from any pony with a quote.
-
-@item -b STYLE
-@itemx --bubble STYLE
-@itemx --balloon STYLE
-@opindex @option{-b}
-@opindex @option{--bubble}
-@opindex @option{--balloon}
-Specify the balloon style that should used, this can either be a file name or a
-balloon name printed by @option{ponysay -B}. This option can be used multiple
-times to specify a set of styles from which one will be selected randomly. If no
-balloon style is specified a fallback style will be used.
-
-@item -W COLUMN
-@itemx --wrap COLUMN
-@opindex @option{-W}
-@opindex @option{--wrap}
-Specify the screen column where the message should be wrapped, this is by default 40,
-as with @command{cowsay}. The balloon's extra width is taken into consideration.
-
-If the argument is not a number, but starts instead with @code{n} (for ‘none’ or
-‘no’), no wrapping is done, and if it starts with @code{i} (for ‘inherit’) the width
-of the terminal is used.
-
-@code{n} and @code{i} is case insensitive, so you may use @code{N} and @code{I}
-instead. Additionally, typo correction is for QWERTY and Dvorak is built in to
-@command{ponysay}; the nearest key, either to the left or to the right, depending
-on which hand is used to press the key, is also allowed.
-
-@item -c
-@itemx --compress
-@opindex @option{-c}
-@opindex @option{--compress}
-@pindex @command{figlet}
-@pindex @command{TOIlet}
-Compress the message in the same way @command{cowsay} does, that is basically
-without multiple spaces, and only paragraphs separations. Using this options
-will mean that you cannot display @command{figlet} and @command{TOIlet} style
-messages.
-
-@item -l
-@itemx --list
-@opindex @option{-l}
-@opindex @option{--list}
-Lists all installed ponies. The ponies which have quotes, i.e. can be used with
-the @option{-q} option, will be marked by being printed in bold or bright (depending
-on the terminal.)
-
-@item -L
-@itemx --altlist
-@itemx --symlist
-@opindex @option{-L}
-@opindex @option{--symlist}
-@opindex @option{--altlist}
-Lists all installed ponies. The ponies which have quotes, i.e. can be used with
-the @option{-q} option, will be marked by being printed in bold or bright (depending
-on the terminal.) This options differs from @option{-l} by printing alternative
-names (symbolic links) inside brackets after their target ponies.
-
-@item +l
-@itemx ++list
-@opindex @option{+l}
-@opindex @option{++list}
-Just as @option{-l}, except it lists extra (non-MLP:FiM) ponies instead of standard
-(MLP:FiM) ponies.
-
-@item +L
-@itemx ++symlist
-@itemx ++altlist
-@opindex @option{+L}
-@opindex @option{++symlist}

-@itemx --altall
-@opindex @option{+A}
-@opindex @option{++all}
-@opindex @option{--symall}

-@itemx --pony-only
-@itemx --ponyonly
-@opindex @option{-o}
-@opindex @option{--pony-only}
-@opindex @option{--ponyonly}

-@command{ponysay} will not wait for a message from stdin.
-
-@item -X
-@itemx --256-colours
-@itemx --256colours
-@itemx --x-colours
-@opindex @option{-X}
-@opindex @option{--256-colours}
-@opindex @option{--256colours}
-@opindex @option{--x-colours}

-your terminal's actual compatibilies. 
-
-@item -V
-@itemx --tty-colours
-@itemx --ttycolours
-@itemx --vt-colours
-@opindex @option{-V}

-@itemx --kmscolours
-@opindex @option{-K}
-@opindex @option{--kms-colours}
-@opindex @option{--kmscolours}
-Use Linux VT's compatbilies with KMS utilisation, despite your terminal's actual
-compatibilies.
-
-@item +c
-@itemx --colour ANSI-COLOUR
-@opindex @option{+c}
-@opindex @option{--colour}
-Colour the balloon, including link and message (the parts that are not individually
-specified.) The argument, should be a ANSI colour sequence without leading CSI and
-without a tailing ‘m’, for example @code{1;31} will make it in red and bold (or bright
-depending on the terminal.)
-
-@item --colour-bubble
-@itemx --colour-balloon ANSI-COLOUR
-@opindex @option{--colour-bubble}
-@opindex @option{--colour-balloon}
-Just like @option{--colour}, but it only colours the balloon, without the message
-or link.

-Just like @option{--colour}, but it only colours the message.
-
-@item --colour-pony ANSI-COLOUR
-@opindex @option{--colour-pony}
-Just like @option{--colour}, but it colours the pony. This colouring has no
-effect ony regular pony files, as it has its own colouring.
-
-@item --colour-wrap
-@itemx --colour-hyphen ANSI-COLOUR
-@opindex @option{--colour-wrap}
-@opindex @option{--colour-hyphen}
-Just like @option{--colour}, but it colours hyphen added by the word wrapping.
-By default this is red (@code{31}), if you want uncoloured use @code{0},
-without @code{0} or @code{39}, the default @code{31} is presistent.
-
-@end table
-
-@opindex @var{message}
-If neither @option{-q} is used nor any @var{message} is specified, @command{ponysay}
-will read the message from stdin (standard input); however, if no arguments are used
-and nothing is piped to stdin, a help message will be printed. If you want to use
-@command{ponysay} without arguments and enter the message by hand, you can run
-@code{cat | ponysay}.
-
-@cindex @file{best.pony}
-If no pony is selected, @command{ponysay} will look for a @file{best.pony} file,
-this file should be a symbolic link to the pony you want as a default. If it is not
-a symbolic link, @option{-q} cannot determine which quotes to use.

-
-In most shells, a file descriptor 3 can defined using @command{3> FILE}, and linked to

-@cindex @file{.bashrc}
-@cindex @file{~/.bashrc}
-
-If you use TTY and have a custom colour palette, you should also add to your
-@file{~/.bashrc}, before @code{fortune | ponysay}:
-@cartouche
-@example
-[ "$TERM" = "linux" ] &&
-    function ponysay
-    @{   exec ponysay "$@@"

-@node Running on screen
-@section Running on @command{screen}
-@pindex @command{screen}
-@cindex @file{.bashrc}
-@cindex @file{~/.bashrc}
-
-@command{screen} will adapt ANSI colour escape sequences to your terminal's
-capabilities. This means that if your terminal reports itself as @code{xterm}
-in @env{$TERM} ponies will lose their colours; they will only use the lower 16
-colours instead of the top 240 colours. By default, almost all X terminals,
-including @command{xterm} and @command{mate-terminal} reports themselves as
-@code{xterm} in @env{$TERM}, and some reports their actual name in @env{$COLORTERM}.
-So before opening @command{screen} you use set @env{$TERM} to @code{xterm-256color},
-if you are using a terminal with support for @code{xterm}'s 256 colours; this
-can be done by adding to your @file{~/.bashrc}:
-@cartouche
-@example
-[ "$TERM" = "xterm" ] &&
-    function screen
-    @{   export TERM="xterm-256color"
-        exec screen "$@@"

-@vindex @env{PONYSAY_BOTTOM}
-@cindex tty
-Under TTY (Linux VT), if the output is larger the the screen's height, only

-to be printed rather the the beginning you can export @env{PONYSAY_BOTTOM}
-with the value @code{yes}, @code{y} or @code{1}.
-
-@item PONYSAY_SHELL_LINES
-@vindex @env{PONYSAY_SHELL_LINES}
-@cindex tty
-Under TTY (Linux VT), if the output is larger than the screen's height, two
-lines are left blank. If you want more, or less, blank lines you can export
-@env{PONYSAY_SHELL_LINES} with the value of how many blank lines you want.
-Naturally this takes effect eve n if the output is not actually larger than
-the screen.
- 
-@item PONYSAY_FULL_WIDTH
-@vindex @env{PONYSAY_FULL_WIDTH}
-You can export @env{PONYSAY_FULL_WIDTH} with the value @code{yes}, @code{y}
-or @code{1}, if you do not want the output to be truncated on the width to
-fit the terminal.
-
-@item PONYSAY_TRUNCATE_HEIGHT
-@vindex @env{PONYSAY_TRUNCATE_HEIGHT}
-Export @env{PONYSAY_TRUNCATE_HEIGHT} with the value @code{yes}, @code{y}

-KMS ponies is an optional feature that required that you have @command{util-say>=2}
-(@command{util-say<2} for @command{ponysay<2.1}) installed. It lets TTY users that
-have a custom TTY colour palette and KMS support get best TTY images that can be
-display at the current state of the art. KMS is supported on most computers, but due
-to lack of published specifications Nvidia drivers does not support KMS.
-@command{util-say} can be downloaded at @url{https://github.com/maandree/util-say}.
-
-To use this feature your @file{~/.bashrc} (or equivalent for your shell) must keep
-track of your colour palette; it is not possible for a program to ask to terminal.
-Either the shell should export a palette string to @env{$PONYSAY_KMS_PALETTE} or you
-should export a command to can get the palette string to
-@env{$PONYSAY_KMS_PALETTE_CMD}. The palette string should be the stream which sets
-the colour palette to the terminal when @command{echo}:ed; preferably, to increase
-speed and reduce cache usage, it should be consistent every time it is exported for
-every colours palette. So you may want to keep it sorted, always be in either upper
-case or lower case, and not contain an character that is not used to set the colour
-palette.
-
-Assuming you have a function in your @file{~/.bashrc}, to reset the colour palette
-to what you set it to last time in the terminal, named @command{reset-palette},
-your @file{~/.bashrc} should, for example, contain:
-@cartouche
-@example
-[ "$TERM" = "linux" ] &&
-    function ponysay
-    @{   export PONYSAY_KMS_PALETTE="$(reset-palette)"
-        exec ponysay "$@@"
-    @}
-@end example
-@end cartouche
-
-KMS ponies uses @file{/var/cache/ponysay/} or, if missing, @file{~/.cache/ponysay/}
-for cache space.

-@pindex xterm
-@pindex putty
-Ponysay works perfectly on @command{xterm}, @command{xterm} like terminals including
-@command{putty}, settings may however need to be customised for Unicode Character Set
-(UCS) support, but less well, depending on font, on VTE based terminals including
-@command{mate-terminal}.
-
-@cindex kms
-@cindex kernel mode setting
-@cindex tty
-@pindex linux vt
-On Linux's native terminal Linux VT (TTY) it works less well, and not good at all
-without Kernel Mode Setting (KMS) support. See @url{https://github.com/erkin/ponysay/issues/1}
-for more information. @command{ponysay} clears the screen before printing to TTY, this
-is because if your graphics driver supports KMS, the colours will be messed by when the
-ponies position moves on the screen, this is also reason why the output is truncated on
-the height in TTY by default.
-
-Most terminals have support for 256 colours, we do however only use the top 240
-colours; this is because the lower 16 colours are usually, in contrast to the top 240,
-customised. We assume that the top 240 colours have their standard values. In TTY with
-KMS support we dot have any actual limit (except for @math{2^{24}} + full
-transparency.)

-@command{ponysay} works perfectly on @command{xterm}, @command{urxvt} and

-UTF-8 support and are currently not supported. Additionally @command{aterm} have
-neither UTF-8 support nor 256 colour support, and is therefore not yet supported.
-

-@pindex @command{cowsay}
-
-This section describes the limitation of @command{cowsay}, but since version 2.1
-@command{cowsay} is no longer used because of it. So none of the following limitations
-are present anymore.
-
-When @command{cowsay} determines the length of a word it measures in number of bytes
-(in UTF-8), therefore non-ASCII words will malformat the balloon with the message.
-
-Further, @command{cowsay} does not recognise ANSI escape sequences, therefore, using
-colours and text styling in messages will also malformat the balloon with the message.
-
-@command{cowsay} does not support balloon, including the link between the message and
-the pony, customisation, other than using @command{cowthink}. However you can modify
-@command{cowsay} (written Perl, so you can edit the installed files) to make the
-balloon look different, maybe using box drawing characters.
-
-@command{cowsay} does not support setting the minimum size of the balloon, both
-directions on the balloon–pony links. or any other placement of the balloon than at
-the top to the left.

-
-Before installing @command{ponysay}, make sure your system have the packages listed
-under @ref{Required runtime dependencies} and @ref{Package building dependencies}
-installed.
-
-Tarballs can be downloaded at @url{https://github.com/erkin/ponysay/tarball/master}
-for bleeding edge, or from @url{https://github.com/erkin/ponysay/tags} for releases.
-
-If you have @command{git} you can @command{clone} the project URL
-@url{https://github.com/erkin/ponysay.git}.
-
-In the terminal, @command{cd} into the ponysay directory and execute
-@command{./setup.py install} or @command{python3 setup.py install}. This will install
-@command{ponysay} into @file{/usr}, normally meaning you need to run as root, e.g. by
-running @command{sudo ./setup.py install}.
-
-Now you will be to use ponysay, run: @command{ponysay "I am just the cutest pony!"},
-or if have a specific pony in your mind: @command{ponysay -f pinkie "Partay!~"}.
-
-@cindex manpage translations
-@command{ponysay} comes with this @command{info} manual and a manpage in section 6,
-@command{man 6 ponysay} (or just @command{man ponysay}). The manpage is also available
-in Spanish: @command{man -L es 6 ponysay}. To install the Spanish manual add the
-option @option{--with-man-es} when running @command{./setup.py}.

-@cindex anatomy of pony files
-
-The pony files are simple raw output data that can be printed to the terminal,
-except it contains scalar variables. The pony images consists of white space, lower
-half blocks [U+2584], upper half blocks [U+2580] and ANSI colour sequences (CSI m),
-and, in TTY, colour value change sequences (OSI P).
-
-Variables are recalled by putting the variable's name between two dollar signs
-(@code{$var$}), and are stored by putting the variable's name followed by the value
-between two dollar signs  and with a equality sign between the name and the value
-(@code{$var=value$}). Variable names cannot include equality signs, but the value
-can; dollar signs can be used by placing an ESC character before the dollar sign.
-
-There are three predefined variables: @code{$$} (empty variable name), @code{$\$}
-and @code{$/$}. @code{$$} has a dollar sign (@code{$}) as its value, while @code{$\$}
-and @code{$/$} contains the characters for the link to the balloon directed in the
-same direction as the variable name's slash.
-
-Variables whose name begin with @code{balloon} are parsed as balloon inserts, it
-can be either @code{balloon}, @code{balloonX}, @code{balloon,Y} or @code{balloonX,Y},
-whether @code{X} is the minimum width of the balloon and @code{Y} is the minimum
-height of the balloon.
-
-Prior to version 2.1 the pony files were cow files used by @command{cowsay}, they
-are partial Perl-scripts that assign a value to a scalar variable named
-@var{$the_cow}. Cow files use a predefined scalar variable named @code{$thoughts},
-these are used to create a link between the message and the pony. The message (and
-the balloon) itself was printed by @command{cowsay} and is not defined in the cow
-files.

-and a full stop (@code{.}) before the index.
-
-The source files are located in @file{ponyquotes/}, where their is a file named

-
-Since Linux VT (TTY) does not have capabilities for returning the position of the
-cursor, the screen must always be cleared before printing the ponies to make sure
-the pony's colours is not lost, i.e. reduced to mare 16 colours, during print. The
-colours are reduced if the pony's position on the screen is changed. This is only
-relevant with KMS support. The clear the screen we print ``@code{\e[H\e[2J}''
-(@code{\e} is ESC) in at beginning. ``@code{\e[H}'' places the cursor at the
-beginning of the screen, and ``@code{\e[2J}'' clears everything on the screen after,
-and including at, the cursor. If we would use ``@code{\ec}'' (that is a reset),

-@node Truncation
-@section Truncation

-@cindex output truncation
-@cindex kms
-@cindex kernel mode setting
-
-Ponysay supports three type of output truncations, cutting away overflow on the right
-and truncation the height by either keeping the bottom or keeping the top. By default
-the latest is enabled under TTY, cutting away overflow on the right is always enabled
-by default.
-
-Truncating the height in TTY is required under Kernel Mode Setting (KMS) support to
-keep the colours from being messed up when the ponies is moved in the screen during
-print. Prior to version 2.0 this was done either by piping to @command{head} (keeps
-the top) or by piping to @command{tail} (keeps the bottom.) @command{head} and
-@command{tail} takes as argument the number of lines to keep at most.
-
-The size of the terminal, measured in characters, is fetched from @command{stty size},
-which returns @code{HEIGHT WIDTH}, and @command{cut} it the used to get either the
-height or the width. This requires only GNU Coreutils; earlier @command{tput rows} and
-@command{tput cols} were used, this however required, the only de facto standard,
-package @command{ncurses}, some shells have environment variables for this.
-
-Since version 2.1 truncation is done internally in the Python script, before that it
-was done in a custom C program @command{truncater}, that was installed to
-@file{/usr/lib/ponysay/truncater}. It recognised UTF-8 ANSI escape sequences,
-including OSI P and CSI m, which is essential for the truncation to be correct. It
-also expands tabs to every eighth column and resets the background colour when needed,
-and writes ANSI escape sequences that are on the left side of the truncation. The
-truncater stops CSI sequences on the first ASCII letter (@code{[a-zA-Z]}), but also
-stops escape sequences after the first character after the initial escape if it is
-not either @code{[} (CSI) or @code{]} (OSI). In the previous, C, program it supported
-UTF-8 by assuming that bytes do not match @code{10xxxxxx} and only those bytes were
-visible. This now fixed internally in Python, but has also been improved to exclude
-combining characters from the set of visible characters. Another difference is that
-the background colours are not reset, instead ANSI colours after the truncation point
-are still printed.

-
-Before version 2.0 @command{ponysay} was written primarily in GNU Bash script; the

-addition dependencies, and is easy to do byte hacking in.
-
-Sometimes shell is too slow, in these cases Perl was used; Perl was already required
-by @command{cowsay}, it is also similar to shell, but also supports hash tables.

-However since version 2.0 we were trying to move from all there languages and only

-To make it easier to write auto-completion for shells, @command{ponysay} supports

-of one pony per line.
-
-@command{ponysay --quoters} work just as @command{ponysay --onelist}, excepts

-
-In earlier versions of @command{ponysay} only the output truncation supported
-Universal Character Set, though handcoded UTF-8 character counting. Now
-@command{ponysay} lets Python decode the data, Python store all 31 bits of a
-character in as one character, not in UTF-16 as some other languages does, this
-means that the code is agnostic to the character encoding. However in Unicode
-6.1 their are four ranges of combining characters, these do not take up any
-width in proper terminal, we therefore have a class in the code named @code{UCS}
-that help us take them into consideration when determine the length of a string.
-
-Some ponies have names that contain non-ASCII characters, read about it in
-@ref{Environment variables}. The UCS names are stored in the file @file{share/ucsmap},
-in it lines that are not empty and does not start with a hash (@code{#}) are
-parsed, and contains a UCS name and a ASCII:ised name. The UCS name comes first,
-followed by the ASCII:ised name that the UCS name should replace or link towards.
-The two names are separated by and simple left to right arrow character [U+2192],
-optionally with surrounding white space.

-
-New ponies can be created from regular images by using util-say, which is available
-at @url{https://github.com/maandree/util-say}.
-Prior to version 2.1 of @command{ponysay}, @command{img2xterm} could be used, by since
-version 2.1 @command{ponysay} is using a new format that only util-say supports.
-@command{img2xterm} (@url{https://github.com/rossy2401/img2xterm}) was used in the
-early stage, but util-say tries to optimise the images in some aspects: as good as
-possible for low capability terminals, tries to place the pony–balloon link, displayed
-as good as possible when marked in the terminal (somewhat compromised by the first
-aspect,) and same width on all rows.
-
-Using util-say:
-@pindex util-say
-@pindex @command{img2ponysay}
-@cartouche
-@example
-@code{img2ponysay -2 -- SOURCE_IMAGE > PONY_FILE}
-
-@code{PONY_FILE} should end with @file{.pony} and be localed in @file{ponies/},
