Although Cypher seems to be a nice RPG system, their shitty PDF layouting makes me sick when creating characters, specially when choosing their abilities. I was anxious going back and forth, needing to remember the page I was reading before. This is insane. Also, having the abilities parsed, it's way easier to create beautiful and automated character sheets on Google Docs and whatnot.
To run it, first install Xpdf command line tools and add to your $PATH
.
Also, make sure you have the same official digital version (buy "Cypher System Rulebook, Revised Edition" here) of the PDF I do (or alter the variables and margin
parameters).
