#### Installation

Requires python3.7+

`$ pip3 install cube-scramble-cli`

#### Run

```
Usage: cube-scramble-cli [OPTIONS] [ARGS]...

A command line based stopwatch and twisty puzzle scramble generator

Options:
-s, --print-symbols Print a list of supported scrambles
-H, --hide-stopwatch When using stopwatch, don't display time while solving
--help Show this message and exit.
```

Supported Symbols:

```
3x3 WCA Scramble 3x3
2x2 WCA Scramble 2x2
4x4 WCA Scramble 4x4
5x5 WCA Scramble 5x5
6x6 WCA Scramble 6x6
7x7 WCA Scramble 7x7

-Last Six Edges Scramble LAST SIX EDGES
-gen Scramble RU SCRAMBLE
Last Slot and Last Layer Scramble LAST SLOT AND LAST LAYER
[Stopwatch] STOPWATCH
[Print Help] HELP
[Quit] QUIT
```

You can press `tab` to scroll through the symbols at the prompt, and arrow keys scroll through history (stored at `~/.scramble_history.txt`. You can change this location by setting the `SCRAMBLE_HISTORY` environment variable to a different path.)

After selecting a scramble, you may repeatedly press `return`/`enter` to generate another scramble of the same type, or enter a number to generate that many scrambles of the selected type; e.g. `3x3 3`

Use Ctrl+C or Ctrl+D, or type `QUIT` to quit

The `STOPWATCH` command will start a stopwatch that stops when any key is pressed. You can use the `-H` flag when starting `cube-scramble-cli` to hide the timer while solving.

If you provide 'user input' as command line arguments, its prints the results and exits without entering interactive mode:

```
$ cube-scramble-cli 3x3 3
R' B2 L2 F2 D2 B2 R U2 R' F2 R' U' R B' R2 U2 F' L D R2
U2 B2 L2 F2 U L2 D' F2 D' U B R B U' R' U B D L'
D' R' U F2 L' U2 L F' U' D B2 U L2 B2 D' L2 B2 U' F2 R
```

This is also accessible through `python3 -m cube_scramble_cli`
