Examples
histo(1) simply reads from stdin, so it works well with
streaming or non-streaming data, from any data source. This
repo includes some example files in ./examples, as well
as some example shell scripts for streaming input.
Static input
histo(1) simply reads from stdin, so it's easy to throw static
data at it for quick analysis:

for example here's a small shell script to generate some random
data:
while true; do
echo $RANDOM
sleep .5
done | histoScreenshots
Negative values are shown as shaded blocks:
