Pnyx Command Line

Pnyx can be used directly from the command-line. Use the CMD interface for quick, one-time usage or for prototyping. The pnyx.cmd project uses a YAML file of commands, which map to commands of the library's fluent API. As an alternative, C# scripts can be used in place of YAML. Whatever your preference, use the CMD to run ad-hoc Pnyx commands. Finally, CMD can be used to expose your project's custom filters and transforms to the command-line and scripting.

To Install

Pnyx command-line works on any environment that supports DotNetCore, which is pretty much any OS these days. For specific instructions, use the following install guides.
