# 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
