Hi,
it would be good if cmatrix could either:
a) do locking - that is, asking for the user's password
before exiting, or
b) run another program on exit, so that a password
checker could be run.

Then it could be used as a terminal locking program.

    In fact, it would be betterr if the terminal locking was
    built in, because then it could be done in a cool matrix style.

    um yeah, an inbuilt function would round the program up ab bit, but what
    about
    cmatrix ; vlock
    or something like that? Same effect, no update necessary :-)

    I uploaded a patch, see case 1157106, not perfect but it's a
    start.
