Flame Simulation in 2D
I am a fan of useless terminal commands. Cowsay, Figlet, and pipes.sh
have all brought me hours of joy. But I had always dreamed of having my
own fireplace in the terminal to keep me warm during those cold
late-night coding sessions. Sure, I had tried a few (aafire comes to
mind), but none of them ever really suited me. They all had their own
problems - opening in a new window, no color, lame effect, etc. Finally,
I could bear it no longer; It had been a while since I had given myself
a frivolous challenge, and my cold terminal had nearly given me
frostbite. There was but one option: I would build my very own
fireplace. And to make it a real challenge, I would do it without any
googling.
