Nyancat CLI

Nyancat rendered in your terminal.

Setup

First build the C application:

make && cd src

You can run the C application standalone. It will prompt you to select a color mode.

./nyancat

To use the telnet server, you need to add a configuration that runs:

nyancat -t

... to either an inetd or xinetd server. I am using openbsd-inetd, which you must give both arguments (nyancat and -t) to, which I found odd.
