The standard format of a typingvid command is the following:
typingvid -t TEXT [-l LAYOUT] [-o OUTPUT] [OPTIONS]
To see all available options, use:
typingvid --help
For example:
typingvid -t "hello world"
will generate an animation video using the default layout (en) and store it at the default output location (output.mp4).
The extension of the OUTPUT
variable (option -o
) defines the type of the output file. For example, to generate a simple GIF:
typingvid -t "lorem ipsum" -o "/path/to/file.gif"
