Getting Started

1) Clone this repository

To get all the necessary files, run the following command:

git clone https://github.com/Zentiph/pyit

2) Install the necessary tools

If you don't have Python, make sure to install it. Any version above 3.10 should be fine. Then, install all of the required Python packages by running this command in the directory you cloned into:

pip install -r requirements.txt

3) Using the tool

The file you want to run is yamtik.py. Running it with no arguments will print a simple usage message to help you get started:

python yamtik.py

For a full list of possible input options, use:

python yamtik.py -h

4) Accessing the tool from anywhere

If you want to be able to run this file from anywhere on your device, follow the steps corresponding to your OS below.

Windows:

1. Create a personal bin folder (e.g. C:\Users\<you>\bin) and add it to your User PATH.
2. Create a yamtik.cmd file inside the bin directory you created in step 1.
3. Place the following inside the yamtik.cmd file:

@echo off
py "C:\path\to\pyit\yamtik.py" %*

where "C:\path\to\pyit\yamtik.py" is replaced by the full path to wherever you are storing yamtik.py.

4. Open a new terminal and run:

yamtik

Unix:

1. Ensure ~bin exists and is on your PATH (add export PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" to your shell rc).
2. Create a symlink:

ln -s /path/to/pyit/yamtik.py ~/bin/yamtik
chmod +x /path/to/pyit/yamtik.py

where "/path/to/pyit/yamtik.py" is replaced by the full path to wherever you are storing yamtik.py.

3. Open a new terminal and run:

yamtik
