explosions demo project is a SDL-based toy with fireworks in 3D space and neat visual effects.

"Explosions" is a simple SDL-based demo written in C which displays a faux-3D environment with small sprites.

Using the mouse, you can cause little sparks (or fireworks) to appear. Using the keyboard, you can change the angle of viewing.

You can also toggle a number of nifty effects, like blur, fade, dissolve, rotation and zoom.

The C source-code is fully commented, and should be useful for learning some simple SDL and interesting effects code.

fortune-discworld project consists of quotes from the "Discworld" novels by Terry Pratchett.

They were the observers of the operation of the universe, its clerks, its auditors. They saw to it that things spun and rocks fell.
And they believed that for a thing to exist it had to have a position in time and space. Humanity had arrived as a nasty shock. Humanity practically was things that didnt have a position in time and space, such as imagination, pity, hope, history and belief. Take those away and all you had was an ape that fell out of trees a lot.

(The Thief of Time)

Popup Fortune is a python application which takes over your root window and displays on it output of the fortune program in boxes (or whatever program you specify).

It is very much a work in progress, but I find it enjoyable to leave running, and if you do too, great.

Popup Fortune is released under the terms of the GNU GPL.

Python and X are required. Python-Xlib is also needed, but I am currently including that in the tarball, since, to my knowledge, packages for that are not too common.

In addition, if you do not specify a different command, the default is fortune, so you will need that too.
