OS X Screencast to animated GIF

This gist shows how to create a GIF screencast using only free OS X tools: QuickTime, ffmpeg, and gifsicle.

Instructions

To capture the video (filesize: 19MB), using the free "QuickTime Player" application:

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = [email protected]:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

	def toCamelCase(String string) {
	String result = ""
	string.findAll("[^\\W]+") { String word ->
	result += word.capitalize()
	}
	return result
	}

	afterEvaluate { project ->
	Configuration runtimeConfiguration = project.configurations.getByName('compile')

	class Integer
	N_BYTES = [42].pack('i').size
	N_BITS = N_BYTES * 16
	MAX = 2 ** (N_BITS - 2) - 1
	MIN = -MAX - 1
	end

	p Integer::MAX #=> 4611686018427387903
	p Integer::MAX.class #=> Fixnum
	p (Integer::MAX + 1).class #=> Bignum
