Awesome ASCII Demo: AA-lib's bb

August 23, 2007

I first saw bb when I loaded up Knoppix for the first time about 5 years ago. It was an innocent looking entry on the menu under 'graphics'. After that click, I was hooked on Linux. This is truly something else!

To try this out, simply run sudo apt-get install bb under Ubuntu. If you prefer to be pure or can't find a native package, download the source for bb and compile. Call the command bb and then hit Y or N for music.

The music is actually pretty good, too!
