INSTRUCTOR NOTE:

If you'd like to use the cowsay program outside of the VM, on your own computer, you can install it like this:

Ubuntu and Debian users:
sudo apt-get install cowsay

Redhat and CentOS users: sudo yum install cowsay

OS X users: brew install cowsay

(This requires the homebrew, a third party package manager for OS X, http://brew.sh/)

Arch Linux users: sudo pacman -S cowsay

Note: You typically need to be a “superuser” to install new software, that’s why these install commands begin with the sudo command . You can learn more about sudo in our Configuring Linux Web Servers course or on Wikipedia.
