JayMatrix

Custom ncurses implementation of the cmatrix program, in C.

Building

A CMakeLists.txt file is given for easy-building. Just use cmake together with make and you'll be on your way in no time! Alternatively, here's a single command to just build everything from scratch:

gcc -o matrix -lncurses default.c main.c coordinates.c

CMake + Make

The easiest way is:

mkdir bin
cd bin
cmake ..
make matrix

Running

JayMatrix supports some CLI arguments, to make the matrix experience as great as possible!

Argument	Options	Effect	Default
--fps (-f)	any positive integer	sets the renderer's fps	24
--color (-c)	OFF, SINGLE, RAINBOW	uses no colors (OFF), green-on-black (SINGLE) or random colors (RAINBOW)	SINGLE
--exit (-e)	multiple possible keys	sets the exit keybinding	q
--help (-h)	-	Shows the help & exits	-

In short, the command ./matrix is equivalent to either of the following:

./matrix --fps 24 --color SINGLE --exit q
./matrix -f 24 -c SINGLE -e q

The key options are:

• any letter
• any number
• space
• return
• tab
• FKEYnumber: binds to Fnumber (e.g: FKEY4 binds to F4)
