juliart 0.0.1

Command line tool for generating Julia

Julia Art "juliart"

This module is based on the Color Julia Bot but intended for command line generation, and with options to customize colors based on holidays. The name "juliart" is also a play on word (Juliard) to hint at artsy things.

I'm customizing it to add more color palette choices (under development).

  --force, -f           force generation of image if already exists.
  --outfile OUTFILE     the output file to save the image (defaults to
                        randomly generated png)
