Cowser is a command-line tool (and Python library) that wraps a message in a speech or thought bubble and prints it above a randomly chosen animal. It supports 35 built-in animals, cowsay-style moods, colors, fortunes, interactive REPL sessions, and user-supplied art packs — while staying a pure, side-effect-free function you can also call from your own code.

A low-code dashboard makes monitoring intuitive for any admin, while scripting and custom sensors give experts full control.

You shouldn't have to choose between a monitoring tool that's easy to use and one that's powerful enough for a complex environment. PRTG's low-code interface lets any admin build dashboards, set alerts and monitor devices without scripting, while custom sensors and full API access are there when your team needs deeper control. One platform, no compromise. Download a free 30-day trial now.
