This page showcases various .tape example scripts and their output animations rendered with EVP. All these examples are rebuilt on every push to the master branch by the CI pipeline.

1. Window Title Bar & Custom Title/Fonts

Shows how to configure macOS-like window decoration controls, set a custom static title bar and custom title font family/size directly in the tape script, or update the title dynamically at runtime.

Static Custom Title & Font Configuration

# Enable window bar styling
Set WindowBar Rings

# Set a custom static window title
Set WindowBarTitle "My Custom Title Bar"

# Set custom window title font family and size
Set WindowBarFontFamily "JetBrains Mono"
Set WindowBarFontSize 15

Dynamic Title Updates via PTY

# Set a dynamic terminal title via ANSI OSC sequence
Type "printf '\033]2;My Dynamic Terminal Title\007'"
Enter
Sleep 2s

2. Colors & Themes

3. Mouse Support

4. Keyboard Shortcuts
