I've had a report that the MacOS version of xanalogtv is crashing when trying to load images, but it works for me. Anyone?
Since the last beta:
- New hacks, topblock and glschool.
- xmatrix -mode pipe displays the text of a subprocess.
- endgame has higher resolution chess-piece models.
- webcollage takes a -directory option to get images from a local directory.
- The RPM spec file no longer auto-restarts xscreensaver when a new version is installed. Restart it manually.
i've kept up since before the first mac beta (built from source) and haven't had a single one crash on me. i have it set to use a random one each time, so i think i've used at least most of them at this point.
quick thanks for porting this, by the way. i started giving it a shot a few years ago, but just didn't have the time or know-how to make any progress.
I added you because I recently read Neuromancer and I found a picture of a Molly'esque character on your page.
And you post some very interesting articles.
