c-squares written in the C language will render random coloured rectangulars in the terminal, while the font, speed, density, color, ratio and number of the shapes drawn are fully costumizable.
Every time a rectangular is complete, a new one starts to take shape.

Most of these are not squares. They’re rectangles.
Also, c-squared would have been an amazing name based on a math pun. Lol
Also, this looks awesome and I love it.
Nice job. Also, I went ahead and made a docker image out of it.
Perfect! Now I can deploy it to my kubernetes cluster and make it scalable!
Nice! Hope you have fun with it.
C is not a scripting language.
Every language is a scripting language if you’re brave enough.
Oh yeah? Then redo the classic doom code in pure bash.
!#/usr/env bash ~/doom-game/bin/doom
I do not get your point?
A script is more about the program rather than the language. You can write a script in assembly or C++ or whatever
Is it? I thought a script is a portable and instantly grokkable piece of code that can be easily modified by others, since it uses very little actual code in itself (e.g. by being reliant on larger imported frameworks), and thus not being a full-fledged application.
The above code is pretty much self-contained, and though it is impressively minimal, it is not instantly grokkable, and I would have a hard time modifying it.
Fair enough. For me, scripts are small reusable programs performing a very specific (sometimes trivial or common) task. Eg: making a wav file from PCM data, modifying byte sequences or formatted text in a particular way, etc. I mostly program in C so I have written most scripts in C. Need not necessarily be grokkable as long as its application and scope is clear
Need not necessarily be grokkable as long as its application and scope is clear
Well that’s a fair point.
I stand corrected.
Well, first of all, through a framebuffer, all graphics inside a virtual terminal are possible, so jot that down

What does this have to do with Linux?
I am a linux user, this is a FOSS project that I created.
This is a project that makes my linux experience more pleasant.
Is this a project that might interest other linux users, or might make their experience better?
Judging from the 49 upvotes so far, yes.
Do you share the same opinion? I don’t know.
If not, feel free to downvote, and/or move on.
