Cool-retro-term: A terminal emulator which mimics the old cathode display
In a modern world where we backlight semiconductors to produce high dpi screens, it almost feels weird to think we used to fire electron guns towards our eyes. I was always partial to the amber screen.<p>Has anyone recently played with an old Asteroids cabinet? The screen is a black and white CRT. When you fire a missile, the screen effect is insanely bright. I'd forgotten just how intense that was.<p>I can't wait until someone pieces together an art piece that makes use of all the crazy analog video effects that we used to take for granted, but now look like alien technology.
