this is insane but worth a quick look. you could always pretend that you are neo from the matrix and impress/confuse your friends with it.

Definitely interesting.  It would be nice if, like in the old days, text was translated to . . . text.  ASCII art for windows and widgets is what I expected, I thought the text in this box would be literal. It's . . . not. Glad esc closes it :)

it certainly is a bit dumb that the text doesn't translate to text - it could have been almost useable otherwise.
