## How to run it locally
With a modern node installation available, just start it with
```
npx mapscii
```
## How to install it locally
2016-09-18 17:57:47 +00:00
### With npm
If you haven't already got Node.js >= version 10, then [go get it](http://nodejs.org/).
2016-09-19 07:19:31 +00:00
```
npm install -g mapscii
```
2016-09-19 07:19:31 +00:00
If you're on OSX, or get an error about file permissions, you may need to do ```sudo npm install -g mapscii```
2016-09-19 07:19:31 +00:00
### With snap
In any of the [supported Linux distros](https://snapcraft.io/docs/core/install):
sudo snap install mapscii
(This snap is maintained by [@nathanhaines](https://github.com/nathanhaines/))
## Running
2016-09-18 17:57:47 +00:00
This is pretty simple too.
```
mapscii
```
## Keyboard shortcuts
* Arrows **up**, **down**, **left**, **right** to scroll around
* Press **a** or **z** to zoom in and out
2019-10-10 22:51:36 +00:00
* Press **c** to switch to block character mode
* Press **q** to quit
## Mouse control
If your terminal supports mouse events you can drag the map and use your scroll wheel to zoom in and out.
