rmatrix

Generates a 'Matrix'-like screen of falling characters in your terminal

The original cmatrix was written in C, and crashes when you wildly resize the window. The rust version is memory-safe, and doesn't crash so easily. Both versions have comparable performance, due to the underlying use of ncurses.

Controls

Key Control
1-9 Speed the letters fall (1 is fastest, 9 is slowest)
Shift + 1-9 Colour of the characters
r Rainbow mode

Installation

cargo
