================================================================================ textrender - Turn stdin into rendered text graphics. DESCRIPTION This allows you to make very nice renders of text for web reasons, without using photoshop/firewors, etc. The advantage is that since it's via the cli, you can save text and parameters to a file and use that as configuration! See textrender, the parent package. USAGE textrender [OPTION].. -p number pointsize, default 11 -f hex color, such as ddffee -b hex background color, such as ddffee -n string font name or path -o path out filename -g string gravity, default is west -d debug, show the commands -s drop shadow, off by default -S [1-100] shadow opacity, default is 80 (sets -s to on) If no out filename path is provided, a temporary file is chosen- such as /tmp/textrender.2323525252.png and this path is printed to stdout. If you provide a path argument, this is not printed to stdout. USAGE EXAMPLES echo 'Leo Charre' | textrender -o /tmp/leocharre.png textrender ./file-with.text CAVEATS In development, contact AUTHOR with any suggestions, etc. I strive to make software on par with unix philosophy, if I have erred, please let me know.
