• cargo

After installing both, just run install.sh by:

$ git clone https://github.com/Krak9n/ranni.git   
$ cd ranni/
$ chmod +x install.sh
$ ./install.sh

Supports only image formats provided by image, and video format by ffmpeg_next.

To execute just run: ranni -t image -i ~/images/photo.png -s 6
in which first argument is type of an input(image or video), second is the path to image/video, and the third is the scale of printing.

• RGBA colors (couldn't figure out)

• more user friendly options for input

If you want to save it for later
Just add standard flag > filename.format
Example:

ranni -t image -i ~/Downloads/love.png -s 6 > save.txt
