# ttygif
A full featured text to gif conversion utility, that just works. It's in beta, so expect rough edges.
It's a DIY terminal emulator that reads from STDIN or asciicast file to render themed gif's with layers. Great for documentation and power point presentations.
## ttygif in action
## Whats the hell is this?
- It's sparkling fantastic colorfull terminal output AUTOMATION!
## how do i get it!?
```bash
## requirements gcc, python development libs, cython
yum install python-devel gcc
pip3 install ttygif --user
```
## What are the benifits
- pipe output into beautifuly themed gifs
- asciicast to gif

fonts are required. All you need to get ttygif to work is a c compiler,
python and its development libs. ttygif is a cython project.
