NAME

ansicat — terminal gemini gemtext renderer for offpunk

SYNOPSIS

ansicat [--format RENDERER] [--mime MIME] [--url URL ...] [--mode MODE] [INPUT ...]

ansicat -h | --help

DESCRIPTION

ansicat is a terminal rendering tool that will render multiple formats (HTML, Gemtext, RSS, Gophermap, Image) into ANSI text and colors. When used on a file, ansicat will try to autodetect the format. When used with standard input, the format must be manually specified. If the content contains links, the original URL of the content can be specified in order to correctly modify relatives links.

Positional arguments

INPUT
path to the text to render. It defaults to the standard input.

Keyword arguments

, --help
show a help message and exit.
RENDERER
renderer to use. Available renderers are auto, gemtext, html, feed, gopher, image, and folder. The auto renderer will heuristically guess the format, either thanks to the MIME type, or from the file being rendered itself.
MIME
MIME type of the content to parse.
MODE
MODE to use to render to choose between normal (default), full or source
URL ...
original URL of the content.

EXIT STATUS

The ansicat utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
