Screenshot of "Moulti", a Terminal User Interface (TUI) piece of software, showing a screenshot of the emblematic "Multipass" scene from The Fifth Element (1997). Written underneath is "moulti pass", arguably the most important subcommand in Moulti.

A Terminal-based User Interface named "Moulti" displaying the output of an "ansible-playbook" command. Each Ansible task is displayed as a collapsible area. All tasks are collapsed except the last one: "PLAY RECAP".
