Re: Jumping Tux!

on winXP, activestate:

obfu.pl 80 24
[download]

produces...

'sleep' is not recognized as an internal of external command.
[download]

Plus a continuous scrolling of numbers. It may be good but it may need a health warning. When I get a 'proper' platform I'll try again!
Take care, wfsp

The perl code is calling the "sleep" command (ie command line program). I'm guessing WinXP doesn't have a program with that name. On my Slackware box though I get a message that says the argument is invalid because sleep(man 1) requires an integer number of seconds or minutes or hours or days. Changing the sleep command on line 121 from: `sleep&0.05");}sub&limits&{print&"\e[3;2H";for($i=0;$` [download] to `sleep&1");}sub&limits&{print&"\e[3;2H";for($i=0;$` [download] lets the program run but it runs at one frame per second. Kind of reminds me of the old FreeBSD console screen saver.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Mmm, I've got Slackware too, but it doesn't give me problems at all. It just runs displayin' that jumping tux (and it jumps very fast!) X-3mE'89 "Considerate la vostra semenza: Fatti non foste a viver come bruti, Ma per seguir virtute e canoscenza" Divina Commedia, Inverno, Canto XXVI	[reply]

I read sleep's documentation, and it says that older versions of sleep didn't accept floating point numbers. X-3mE'89 "Considerate la vostra semenza: Fatti non foste a viver come bruti, Ma per seguir virtute e canoscenza" Divina Commedia, Inverno, Canto XXVI	[reply]
