This gist shows how to create a GIF screencast using only free OS X tools: QuickTime, ffmpeg, and gifsicle.
To capture the video (filesize: 19MB), using the free "QuickTime Player" application:
| from sys import exit | |
| def begin(): | |
| while True: | |
| answer = raw_input("Are you ready, %s? Type yes or no: > " % name) | |
| if answer == "yes" or answer == "Yes": | |
| fork() | |
| elif answer == "no" or answer == "No": | |
| print "I'm sorry you feel that way. Try agian when you are ready :)" | |
| quit() |
