slt is kind of like sl, but instead of a steam locomotive it’s an NS Sprinter Light Train (SLT).

Paste and execute the following command in a terminal window:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chunfeilung/slt/main/install.sh)"

⚠️ slt may not display properly in cmd.exe. Please use Windows Terminal for now.

Download the latest slt-win-x64.exe from the Releases page and rename it to slt.exe. Place the executable in a directory that’s included in your PATH, e.g. C:\Windows\System32.

…are currently not supported.

To view a line drawing of a Sprinter Light Train, execute slt with -l, --lines or without any options.

Alternatively, you can make slt show a grayscale train by providing the -f or --filled option. This option can also be combined with the -c or --colored option for a more colorful experience:

slt --filled --colored

To make the train move faster or slower, provide the --speed or -s option with a numeric value. The speed of the train will be multiplied by the provided value.

slt --speed 5

A complete list of supported options can be displayed by passing the --help option:
