Yeah, I got a kick out of this when I found it. It actually works quite well. Sadly, the period button doesn't work in Opera (don't know why) so you can't cat the license.txt or welcome.txt, but in Firefox and Chrome it's okay.

I wonder how long until someone makes a UniXKCD distro...?

I hadn't found that Easter egg. That's a good one.

You can also try these popular Linux commands with interesting results:



who
top
more
kill
moo

Opera doesn't work with . because it's the keyboard shortcut to inline find. Same deal when trying to use -/+ because they're the zoom shortcuts.

Yeah, but it's still a great reference to a great webcomic

I most certainly am not! Besides, I bet he doesn't even read XKCD because Randall uses Linux instead of GNU/Linux.
