Interesting how his command line glows and shows CRT-like distortions. Is that actually how it looks, or is that post-processing applied to the video?

- davidu 15y agoI think it's a little of column A and a little of column B.

- jamesbkel 15y agoNot sure if I would really use it aside from a novelty, but I may need to buy this simply to support such a great/fun idea.
- mreid 15y agoI'm guessing he had emacs open in a "Cathode":http://www.secretgeometry.com/apps/cathode/ http://www.secretgeometry.com/apps/cathode/ session. The extra warping at the end of the video can be achieved by fiddling with the "distress" parameters in Cathode's preferences.
- rhdoenges 15y agoIs there a linux alternative to that? I want it incredibly badly.
- kragen 15y agoThe apple2 screensaver that comes with xscreensaver can be used as a terminal emulator. You can also get a chintzy version by fullscreening xterm or gnome-terminal with the vt220 TrueType font and green-on-black, but that doesn't give you CRT distortions, or for that matter even correct-looking reverse video.
- rhdoenges 15y agothe apple2 screensaver is a thing of beauty.
- samaaron 15y agoSadly it's just post-processign FX. However, a terminal that looked like that would be totally badass.

- agumonkey 15y agoThe glow fits very well with the flymake (i guess) flashing. In theory a ~compiz composite plugin for this purpose wouldnt be hard to create, if it doesn't already exists. And Qt seems capable of glowing to.. time to patch Konsole.
- rhdoenges 15y agoI actually asked him some time ago and he said (much to my disappointment) that he did it in post-processing.
