⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

besides those related to GTK, a few options are available. yes, only a few β€” she's lowkey minimalist like that. πŸ™ˆ

  • -h, --help β€” see some help at command line. when in doubt, ask for help, it's iconic behavior. πŸ’…
  • -v, --version β€” see the program version. iykyk, always good to know what you're running. ✨
  • -x, --velotxt β€” forces the speed module to use complete texts with paragraphs, just like the fluidity one. so if you want the speed module to serve full paragraphs realness, this is the flag for you. πŸ”₯

πŸ¦‹ COLORS πŸ¦‹

not me about to tell you that you can customize colors?? because you CAN, bestie, and it's adorable. πŸ’–

some colors may be configured through the file preferences.ini. it's commonly placed at: $HOME/.config/klavaro/

there you should create a session named [colors] and set some colors with the internet/html syntax (#RRGGBB). for example:

[colors]
key_fg=#332200
key_1=#112233
key_9=#213243
text_intro_fg=#222222
char_untouched_bg=#fffaf8
char_wrong_fg=#880000
char_correct_fg=#009900
char_retouched_fg=#bbbbaa
cursor_blink_bg=#ff88ff

and also, an alternative file can be defined, for toggling all those colors: altcolor.ini, besides the preferences.ini file. two files, one aesthetic, we love to see it. πŸŽ€
