11 This plugin adds a shortcode that displays a video from <a href="https://asciinema.org">asciinema.org</a>.

13 == Description ==
14
15 danixland-asciinema is a plugin that adds a new shortcode to be used whenever you want to embed a video from asciinema.org.
16
17 As stated on their website, asciinema (formerly ascii.io) is a free and open source solution for recording terminal sessions and sharing them on the web.
18 It aims to be a "go to" place for every command-line user who wants to share their skills with others. Or putting it differently, it's a place to show off your geekiness.
19
20 I decided to make this plugin because I was looking for a good and easy way to share a video from asciinema and I'm too lazy to dwelve into oEmbed :-D

33 == Frequently Asked Questions ==
34
35 = What are the options that I can use with the shortcode? =
36
37 The most important option is the "video" which you can assign to the number of the video you want to embed, let's say you want to embed `https://asciinema.org/a/14829` the shortcode whould be `[asciinema video=14829]`
38 The full list of options is:
39
40 * video
41 * time
42 * autoplay
43 * loop
44 * speed
45 * theme
46
47 You can read about their usage [on the website](https://asciinema.org/docs/embedding).
48
49 = I'm stuck with your plugin and don't seem to be able to customize it/make it work, can you help me? =
50
51 Of course, you can ask for help on [the forums](http://wordpress.org/support/) or write a comment on the main article for this plugin on [my site](http://danixland.net/?p=3525), I'll reply ASAP ;)
52
53 = I'd like this plugin to be translated in my language, can you do this for me? =
54
55 This plugin doesn't output any text other than the video code, so it doesn't provide/need a translation ;)
