A small piece of software designed to emulate the windows "pipes" screensaver in a terminal window.
The code should compile with a C99-compliant compiler and a POSIX-compliant-ish
system (that is, most systems). Releases include a configure script and can
be built in the usual way:
./configure && make && make install
If you got the code directly from Git, you will need to generate the
configure script using GNU Autoconf. The build scripts make use
of some extensions from the Autoconf Archive, so you will
also need that installed.
autoreconf -i
./configure && make && make install
If you see messages about missing macros, you may need to get a copy of the
Autoconf Archive manually and tell autoreconf to use the local copy:
git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/autoconf-archive.git
autoreconf -i -I autoconf-archive/m4
./configure && make && make install
Note that at least version 2.64 of autoconf is required.
To get help, run snake --help. In my opinion, the following options are
especially interesting:
snake -p30 -r1
snake -p100 -r0 -i1
