cpond

creates procedurally animated fish to swim around your terminal

Note

Command line options have been added, including the option to use braille character drawing! See "usage" below.

make

note I used gcc

1. git clone
2. ensure you have ncurses installed. (ncurses6 was used)
3. move into your local clone of the repo
4. run make to get the cpond executable
   • if you are on mac and run into issues try changing -lncursesw to -lncurses in the Makefile

usage

• to run ./cpond

• -b or --braille allows you to toggle the use of braille characters

  • This makes it so you don't have to zoom out (as far) to see the fish!

• -c or --count allows you to set the number of fish

• --fps allows you to change the fps by changing the delay between frames.

  • ex: --fps 60 will set the delay between frames to 1s / 60.

while runnning

• type q to quit
• type p to toggle pause
