VHS v0.9.0

Hurry up and Wait

This release introduces the Wait keyword:

Output wait.gif
Require gum
Type "./slow.sh"
Enter
Wait+Screen@10s /Hello/
Type "echo Lets Go!"
Enter
Sleep 1

This allows you to remove all the random Sleeps in your tape files! You can now wait for specific conditions instead. This means more control while simplifying tape file creation.

More shells

There's also support for xonsh and osh, so you can now use them in your tapes as well:

Output examples/settings/set-shell-xonsh.gif
Set FontSize 38
Set Height 225
Set Shell xonsh
Sleep 1s
Type "I am using xonsh."
Sleep 2s
