Pacing and styling options for a vhsR recording

Constructor for the option list passed to internal recording helpers. Public entry points like record_demo() forward ... here, so any argument documented below can be passed by name to those functions. Calling tape_options() directly with an unknown argument errors out, which gives the public functions typo safety on pacing/styling args.

Usage

tape_options(
  width = 1200,
  height = 600,
  font_size = 22,
  theme = "Catppuccin Mocha",
  typing_speed = "60ms",
  playback_speed = 1,
  line_pause = "500ms",
  start_pause = "800ms",
  end_pause = "500ms",
  paragraph_pause = NULL,
  typing_speed_jitter = 0
)

Arguments

width, height: Terminal dimensions in pixels.
font_size: Font size in pixels.
theme: A vhs theme name.
typing_speed: Per-keystroke delay, e.g. "60ms".
playback_speed: Playback rate multiplier (1 = real time).
line_pause: Delay after each line of R code, e.g. "500ms".
start_pause: Delay between R startup and the first typed line.
end_pause: Delay between the last typed line and the (hidden) q() exit.
paragraph_pause: If set, blank lines produce a sleep of this duration instead of being typed.
typing_speed_jitter: Numeric in [0, 1]; when positive, each typed line uses a speed sampled uniformly within ±jitter of typing_speed.

Value

A named list of options.
