alart

alart is a pseudo-random art generator.

License

alart is free software under the terms of the GNU General Public License version 3 (or any later version). This is version 0.1.1 (codename: "Fox") of the program.

Installation

Run this in a terminal:

# python setup.py install

Examples can then be found in the examples directory.

Dependencies

Python 2.5 is required, though newer versions might be needed for Encapsulated PostScript support.

alart depends on cairo and cairo's Python bindings for generating images. Version 1.6 is needed for best output support, but earlier versions (e.g. 1.4) works ok. To install it, do one of these things:

For DEB-based distros (Debian etc.): type apt-get install python-cairo
For RPM-based distros (Fedora etc.): type yum install pycairo
For other distros: do something similar or get it at http://cairographics.org/download/

alart depends on PyGame 1.8.0+ (perhaps earlier versions are also supported) for showing generated images. If you only want to generate images and not show them in an interactive window, you do not need PyGame graphics and sound. To install it, do one of these things:

For DEB-based distros (Debian etc.): type apt-get install python-pygame
For RPM-based distros (Fedora etc.): type yum install pygame
For other distros: do something similar or get it at http://pygame.org/download.shtml

Use

To use alart, just run alart. This will display a generated image with default options. To generate a new image while in the window, press R.

To see a list of alart's command-line options with explanations, run alart --help. To see alart's module help, run pydoc alart.
