Documentation for Simplified Exalted 2nd Ed. Dice Roller
This Wiki article deals with the use and features of the script.
Current Version: 1.1
Linux/Other Unix
Alright, here is how the program is used and roughly how it works. The script is very simple, it uses the command line, but is easily run by itself without have to do much in the command line at all. To execute the file on its own without having to navigate to it via command line in unix systems, if you have a window manager installed you should be able to Right Click (on the script file) > Properties > Permissions > Click Checkbox (allow the file to run as a executable, or something to that effect). Double click it and tell it to Run in Terminal, otherwise you will not get anything.
MacOSX
Right click on the script > Click Open With > Click Terminal (you may set as a default should you choose)
After following the steps it should look something like this...
Windows
Will be added once binaries are created.
