#### A CLI program which draws pretty animated colored circles in the terminal.

*I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark, near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost, in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.*
