Easter Eggs
January 19, 2007 – 12:25 pmI’ve search been searching for some Easter Eggs, and here is what i found.
But what is an virtual Easter Egg you may ask. Well it is normally a hidden message or feature that may occur in response to some undocumented action.
Gnome:
Press ALT and F2 together and type
free the fish
A fish called Wanda should pop up and wander around the desktop.
To end it, just type in a console:
killall gnome-panel
Another on is a “space Invaders” game tipe.
Press ALT and F2 together and type:
gegls from outer space
Mozilla FireFox
In the address bar write:
about:mozilla
You should see a part of the The Book of Mozilla.
Python (thanks paolo)
Start python interpreter and then type “import this”
igama@ublap:~$ python
>>> import this
I’ll be looking for some new ones

Just a couple of others to add:
Aptitude
try to type in console: “apt-get moo” and see what happens. Then, try with “aptitude moo”. Disappointed ? Don’t worry: just add the option -v and, if still not satisfied, use the option “-vv” instead and go on adding v (”-vvv”, “-vvvv”, etc) until you get what you are looking for.
Python
start python interpreter and then type
import this
Have fun
