But I suppose it is not "real" but rather they used high tech to make it look that way. Like the MAME and zsnes and all those emulators to play Neo-Geo and SNES. But actually those run the original ROMs. This is just a shell that looks that way. Also, they are "exposed" as running it in a GUI window. But I'm impressed by the effort and result. Though I prefer the real deal. Here, no fake records: http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573/pics/console_cols.png This is the console with tmux and zsh. Showing Debian, Sun, colored prompt strings, colored output, color by extension, and some ASCII art from the BBS era. Speaking of the 90s, to quote SEGA: "Beat us. If you can." By the way, "Swordfish" is also the name of a hacker movie that really sucked, but at least included some nice looking wenches. Also, there is a very colorful shell being developed today, the fish shell. You can get such colors for zsh as well, which I tried, but I got stressed out by the words changing colors as I typed. > However I see you using the unicode "’" (U+2019) in > your reply instead of the traditional typewriter "'" > (0x27). :-) How can you be a traditionalist with > behavior like that? Ha ha! I and Mr. Khan already had a holy war on that which included some 10-20 posts, some of which were very long. Next time, I'll put him down that mercilessly as you just did and be done with it. :) -- underground experts united
