Okay, i think we never get in compliance which cow is the best super cow, so i propose the following: APT provides two standard cows: the "old" cow and the cow from Fernando Ribeiro accessible with "apt-get moo" and "apt-get moo moo". This should be suitable for most users.
For the more advanced users: Possibility to dynamical add (or replace the defaults with) other cows with config settings. Configuration items are "APT::Get::SuperCow::MOOCOUNTER::LINENUMBER" Example: the default cow as a config entry which would be displayed by "apt-get moo moo moo": APT::Get::SuperCow::3 { 1 " (__)"; 2 " (oo)"; 3 " /------\/"; 4 " / | ||"; 5 " * /\---/\"; 6 " ~~ ~~"; 7 "...Have you mooed today?..."; }; (most likely borged by launchpad - but you get the idea) Note: Quotes can't be used in this cow-construction-code, but you can use escape characters... (colored cows anybody?) See attached patch for implementation details.
