Moulti – assign visual collapsible blocks

Moulti changes the way your shell scripts (bash, zsh, etc.) display their output in your terminal. Moulti enables you to assign the numerous lines emitted by your scripts to “steps”, i.e. visual, collapsible blocks featuring their own title and color.

Moulti is a tool meant for people who write and execute shell scripts and/or Ansible playbooks. Specifically, if you find yourself scrolling up your terminal to ensure everything went fine while your script is still running, then Moulti is made for you.

This is free and open source software.
