Command Line Demonstrations with Kitty
Details
#### Presenter: Sean Twiehaus
Many of us in the IT industry have probably had professors that type very, very slowly. Or worse, professors that make a lot of typos. Those can really throw off a demonstration as the professor has to go into troubleshooting mode to figure out why their command didn't work. This project was created to avoid all these problems.
Simply create a "command file" with all the commands that will be ran during the demonstration. During the demo, use a custom keyboard shortcut to read the command file and put the next command on the prompt as if it was typed in by hand. Explain the command to the audience and hit `enter` to execute it. Repeat until the demonstration is complete.
The originally scheduled talk, i.e. "NixOS Linux distro & Nix pkgmngr". will be done in a future month. Sorry for this last minute change of topics.
