    Fast and efficient Matrix raining code effect for the terminal. Made with Nim so compilation is super fast (under 2 seconds on average) and it's cross-platform. A JavaScript version lets users try it out on the web and easily configure command-line arguments in real time.

     Like

    Python script to simulate the display from "The Matrix" in terminal. Uses half-width katakana unicode characters by default, but can use custom character sets. Accepts keyboard controls while running. Based on CMatrix.
