say

vt. 1. To type to a terminal. To list a directory verbosely, you have to say
ls -l. Tends to imply a newline -terminated command (a sentence ). 2. A
computer may also be said to say things to you, even if it doesn't have a
speech synthesizer, by displaying them on a terminal in response to your
commands. Hackers find it odd that this usage confuses mundane s.
