I love seeing little projects like this, and I wish I were better at finding time to do them myself. It’s all too easy when you’ve been programming professionally for a long time, often working on the same projects every day for months or years, to lose that sense of wonder at what we can achieve in a few hours with a modest amount of code. Sometimes it’s good to just sit down for a day or two and hack together a kind of program you’ve never written before, whether that’s a text editor or a puzzle game or rendering a pretty 3D fractal landscape or an IRC chat bot. It’s always nice to see someone else who’s created something that way too, so thanks for sharing.
