==

A horizontal ruler for your terminal

Tired of not finding things in your terminal because there's a lot of logs and

garbage? Tired of destroying the Enter key by creating a "void zone" in your

terminal so that you can see the error that you're trying to debug?

## Setup

### Linux

#### Quick install

    $ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LuRsT/hr/master/hr > ~/bin/hr

    (Examine ~/bin/hr)

    $ chmod +x ~/bin/hr

Note: You should have `~/bin` in your `$PATH` for this to work.

#### Complete install

    $ git clone git@github.com:LuRsT/hr.git

    $ cd hr

Open `Makefile` and edit the `PREFIX` variable, specifying the directory

where you'd want the software to reside. Then:

    $ sudo make install

### OSX

OSX users can install using Homebrew:

    $ brew install hr

## How to use it?

    $ hr

    ################################## # Till the end of your terminal window

    $

    $ hr '*'

    ********************************** # Till the end of your terminal window

    $

You can also make "beautiful" ASCII patterns

    $ hr - '#' -

    ----------------------------------

    ##################################

    ----------------------------------

    $ hr '-#-' '-' '-#-'

    -#--#--#--#--#--#--#--#--#--#--#--

    ----------------------------------

    -#--#--#--#--#--#--#--#--#--#--#--

That's it, no requirements, just pure old POSIX shell and `tput`, check the source,

it's free.
