GZDoom Terminal User Interface

The gzdoom-tui is a tui written in bash using whiptail that tries to facilitate running Doom mods from the terminal. Requirements are bash 4.x, whiptail, and gawk.

🎞️ Interface

🔨 Installation

Copy the gzdoom-tui script, give it the required permissions and execute the script.

🔧 Configuration

Two configurations are present. Where the Gameplay mods are, and where the level mods are. Both can be written in a single file that is to be sourced by bash located at either XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gzdoom-tui or ~/.config/gzdoom-tui. Both configuration values default to ~/.config/gzdoom. After the first run, the file can be edited for the desired values as well.

Limitations

• Mod order is always fixed (alphabetically) and not affected by selection order (whiptail limitation).
• Relies on gzdoom's own graphical interface for selection of iwads.

Alternatives

• twad with more features written in golang.
