The GUI is simple to use and responsive, and the code is a good demonstration of what may need to be written to produce a demonstration such as this one.</p> <p>If you have suggestions or would like to vote this recipe down, please provide an explanation of the problem along with a solution that you would propose and implement to improve upon what is presented.</p> Pseudo-3D effect in text mode...
