I know that there’s many Star Wars fans out there, while I’m not one. If you are a Star Wars fans, you should watch this - the DOS version. Follow the following steps to watch it.
- Click on your START MENU
- Click on Run…
- In the “Open” field, type “telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl” and hit enter
No sounds, no graphic, but just combination of moving text and symbols. It’s just simply amazing, no doubt that it took some time to complete something like this. Although it’s quite plain, but it has the story line and you will really understand it. Not a waste of time if you’re a Star Wars fans, but I didn’t finish watching it - as I don’t quite like Star Wars. Enjoy!

I can’t believe this is still in existence! I remember running this back in oh, 1993 or so in the comp sci lab back when I was a student. Oh, dah memories, dah memories. I haven’t tested it here but I remember it being longer than I would have thought. Maybe a little too long.

I think the text appear and disappear a little too fast, too dull and like looking into a comic strips moving. Not my taste but quite cool.
