teras

A command line tool for linux to aid in working in the terminal. Prints a header with the time followed by the number of spaces specified by the user.

for example,typing

teras

into the command line would print just the header with a line break before and after, while

teras 10

would print the header followed by 10 spaces

The point of the program is to make working in the terminal easier when dealing with programs that output huge amounts of text. (such as a compiler outputting a long series of error messages) The normal clear command is helpful in this case, but doesnt add any spacing in between outputs, which makes differentiating between blocks of output text rather difficult. The name teras stands for 'terminal eraser', shortened to the quickest set of characters that can be typed on a qwerty keyboard.
