README

pi-runcat

Is a running cat🐱 for your PI loading bar

(Yet another useless cat here..)

wget -P ~/.local/share/fonts "https://github.com/FredySandoval/pi-runcat/releases/download/v1.0.0/runcat.ttf"
pi install npm:pi-runcat
fc-cache -f

# MacOS
curl -L -o ~/Library/Fonts/runcat.ttf "https://github.com/FredySandoval/pi-runcat/releases/download/v1.0.0/runcat.ttf"
# Then restart the app that needs the font. 
# If it still does not appear, you can refresh macOS font caches with:
atsutil databases -removeUser
