Channel Version Published

A custom pager that outputs lines with a delay, allowing control over pacing.

Introduction

Slomore is a pager (like more, or less) that slows down screen output.

This is useful when making tutorials where command-line tools spew lots of output that scrolls by too fast. If you're capturing the output for use in a video (or gif) without slomo, your video recorder may 'miss' frames, making the output appear 'jumpy'.

Usage

Pipe output to slomore.

find /bin | slomore

Change output speed.

export SLOMORE_LINES_PER_SECOND=20
 find /bin | slomore

Slower...

export SLOMORE_SECONDS_PER_LINE=2
find /bin | slomore
