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 describing 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
