A shell script I use to (mostly) automatically cleanup my ~/Desktop

.cleanup.sh

#!/bin/bash
MYHOME=$HOME
MYDESKTOP=$HOME/Desktop

echo "         _                              "
echo "        | |                             "
echo "    ___ | | ___  __ _ _ __  _   _ _ __  "
echo "   / __|| |/ _ \/ _  | '_ \| | | | '_ \ "
echo "  | (__ | |  __/ (_| | | | | |_| | |_) |"
echo "   \___||_|\___|\__,_|_| |_|\__,_| .__/ "
echo "                                | |    "
echo "                                |_|    v0.1 "
