It can be used as a Python library, or invoked from the command-line.

Usage

There are some examples of specktre used as a script and as a library in the examples directory in the GitHub repo.

What’s in a name?

The word “speckled” came to mind when describing this pattern, and I wrote the first version shortly after the James Bond film SPECTRE had been released.
