# Scrawler

An ASCII art animation library
that I am assembling from the ideas
in my 2017 opening keynote at the North Bay Python conference:

Scrawler is small, but you can try it out with:

git clone [email protected]:brandon-rhodes/scrawler.git
cd scrawler
python3 -m scrawler.examples.zen

Note that some terminals are better for animation than others.
The venerable `xterm` is quite poor,
and animations run inside of it will flicker incessantly.
But I have not observed any flickering
when running my animations in a terminal launched with:

xfce4-terminal --hide-menubar

You can run Scrawler’s tests with:

python3 -m unittest discover
