"""Build TAS-style input movies for the sl0pboy emulator's `input play` replayer.
A movie is a text file of `<frames> [buttons...]` lines: hold the given buttons
(a b start select up down left right; none/'-' = released) for that many frames.
Blank lines and `# comments` are ignored. The emulator drives one line's worth
of joypad state per emulated frame, so replay is deterministic:
./gbctl input play /abs/demo.gbmv reset # reset + replay from boot
./gbctl record start /abs/demo.gbv 2 # (optional) capture video
...
./gbctl record stop
python3 tools/gbgif.py demo.gbv demo.gif --scale 3
Use as a library to synthesize demos:
from gbmovie import Movie
m = Movie()
m.wait(40) # let fastboot settle
m.hold("select", 8) # open the SL0P menu
m.wait(16)
m.tap("down", repeat=13) # cursor down to the last item
m.hold("a", 6) # select it
m.wait(600) # watch it run
m.save("demo.gbmv")
Run this file directly to emit the sample demo above to stdout.
