Demonstration of the info.vim plugin running in Neovim.

After having written my incredibly useful script I could not remember how to make it executable from the shell, I had to look it up in the manual. Luckily the info.vim plugin allows me to open the Guile manual right inside Vim; I was able to brows the manual right to the relevant section and copy-paste the code without ever leaving my editor.

If you liked this demonstration you can get info.vim from its official repository at https://gitlab.com/HiPhish/info.vim

You can replay the downloaded recording in your terminal using the asciinema play command:

Use with stand-alone player on your website

Download asciinema player from the releases page (you only need .js and .css file), then use it like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="asciinema-player.css" />
</head>
<body>
  <div id="player"></div>
  <script src="asciinema-player.min.js"></script>
  <script>
    AsciinemaPlayer.create(
      '/assets/92884.json',
      document.getElementById('player'),
      { cols: 147, rows: 33 }
    );
  </script>
</body>
</html>

See asciinema player quick-start guide for full usage instructions.

While this site doesn't offer GIF conversion at the moment, you can still do it yourself with the help of asciinema GIF generator utility - agg.

Once you have it installed run the following command to create GIF file:

agg https://asciinema.org/a/92884 92884.gif

Or, if you already downloaded the recording file:

agg 92884.json 92884.gif

Check agg --help for all available options. You can change font family and size, select color theme, adjust speed and more.

See agg manual for full usage instructions.
