Retro terminal for OS X

Aug 31, 2007 09:50
hackers of yore, rejoice! Miss spending endless nights staring into the green phosphor of your old computers or terminals? Salvation is here! GLTerminal was written a year or so ago to emulate exactly that experience. Black background, green phosphor, very well-simulated phosphor lingering when things move onscreen, and even the ability to simulate various baudrates, all the way down to 50 baud (synchronous dedicated lines, anyone?) It can even simulate the curvature of the old tube CRTs that used to dominate computing.

So fire up a copy of nethack or Angband, or Frotz and your favorite text adventure, and relive your early days!
