Gti

Jul 20, 2023

Just a silly git launcher, basically. Inspired by sl

It’s a program that displays a badly made ASCII-art animation to punish you for your typing error - and after that magically launches the command you meant to launch.

The code is available under an MIT-like license on github - though of course anybody can write his or her own version in a couple of minutes.

This whole thing is heavily inspired by sl, which displays a steam locomotive. However, gti is actually nicer than sl as it at least executes git after the animation. -
