Shgif -- shell-gif

shgif is one of the simplest gif-like player made by ASCIIs

description

Shgif is:

• a Gif-like animation player for .shgif file
• ASCII animation

• no-gif supported

installation

you can use homebrew and bpkg[WIP] to install shgif:

$ brew install shgif

$ bpkg install -g Cj-bc/shgif

bpkg support is in progress...

dependencies

usage

# start paying shgif.
# this should have `src` folder on the same directory as `.shgif` file
shgif <yourshgif.shgif>
# start playing shgif with tar/tar.gz
shgif <yourshgif.tar>
shgif <youshgif.tar.gz>

file structure

You should have this directory structure:

projectFile/projectFile.shgif
           /src             /yourAAfile.txt
                            /color         /yourAAfile.txt

how to write color layer

You should write color layer for each src file for now. (I'll try to remove this)

the color layer is the file where you can define color for each src. It based on src file, but some feature are added to support color.

how it work

• First line: setting for foreground color
• Second line: setting for background color

Note: you can use blink/bold keywords in both lines. When you use this, the specified characters will be blink/bold.

r=10,n=blink
B=231,W=235

Above code sets 'B' to 'background:
