To get one random banner called "Banner.png",
run "./random_banner.sh".

To get 100 banners in the 'banner_gallery',
run "./make_banners.sh"

YOU WILL NEED THESE FILES ON YOUR SYSTEM:

/usr/share/dict/words
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/

If you don't have them in these locations, you'll
have to change the script to reflect their true locations.
For instance, the Unix words file is sometimes in
/usr/share/ . Others systems call it 'wordslist'
and hide it somewhere else. 

rgb.txt should be in the /lib/X11/
directory of the base of your X-windowing system.

And of course, without TrueType fonts installed on
your system, you're kinda out of luck. I don't even
know if this works with other fonts, but you're 
welcome to try.

These scripts also depend on the following programs:

Bash shell - they're Bash scripts!
  Other shells may be possible but untested.
ImageMagick - at least version 6.2.8
Standard *nix utilities - sed, awk, grep, etc.

that goes to the first part of the five-part walkthrough of
what's going on.
