matrix-py3 0.0.4

Python3 implementation of cmatrix with a timer

Matrix-py3

Python3 implementation of cmatrix to generate "character falls".

Matrix-py3 is adapted from pmatrix that is well recommended if you prefer Python2.

It is noteworthy that a timer is added to matrix-py3 for a scheduled stop. What's more, matrix-py3 can be regarded as a screensaver that runs parallel to other time-consuming programs.

Installation

• with pip

pip install matrix-py3

• with conda

conda install matrix-py3 -c conda-forge

Usage

Run independently

• in command line:

matrix # run until `Ctrl + C`
matrix 3 # run for 3 seconds

• in python:

from matrix3 import matrix

matrix() # run until `Ctrl + C`
matrix(3) # run for 3 seconds

Parallel to other programs

Add coolmatrix to the head of your commands. For example, ping is a command for testing a network connection. Assuming you want to run ping 8.8.8.8 -c 10 , then run:

coolmatrix ping 8.8.8.8 -c 10

All the outputs can be recorded automatically in the file cool.out .
