Tetris (itch) (Crazy Piri) Mac OS
Last year saw the release of Tetris Effect, a wild and trippy take on the beloved Tetris formula. It received high praise and numerous accolades, becoming a must-have PlayStation 4 exclusive. And now, PC players will have the chance to try the game out for themselves, as Epic Games Store will be bringing Tetris Effect to their platform. Play Tetris N-Blox for free. Browser-based online Tetris game. No download required. It's not the Mac hardware that is the issue, it's the operating system. The sound resource. By whythankyou: 10/30/05 It can run on an ibook running system 9.XX without a problem, we are running it now. By Hilary: Hey, I have the 1984 mac, still intact with Randall Cook's Tetris! I grew up with this. In addition, Mac OS 7 didn't actually come preloaded onto the system: In what was possibly a poorly thought-out attempt to future-proof the platform, the OS had to be included in the game CD and loaded into the system's memory at startup, thus leaving little memory for the actual game. These factors would prove to be the Pippin's own undoing.

Emacs is a nice operating system. Too bad it doesn't have a good editor.

another reason i like VI . . . no bloat
If you really hate bloat in your editor, you should use ed, man! !man edIt's the standard! Ed doesn't waste your time by gobbling up memory or getting in your face with a weird, inconsistent user interface. Try it today!
Wow, all those kilobytes of bloat. How can you stand it?

ed? My God, that thing is bloated as hell! I use cat as my editor. No fancy junk like going back and correcting your mistakes! I still remember when programmers were MEN, not little sissies whining for syntax highlighting in their editors. Punch cards, tape reels, and disk drives the size of washing machines... now those were the days....
yeah, talk about a bloated editor... emacs offers pong too (for 2 players). Just enter 'M-x pong' (M-x again equals to escape-x). One player can use the arrow-keys, the other the numbers 4 and 6.
Have fun!
Actually, emacs is not that bloated. It has a great lazy-loading system and all these 'goodies' are provided as packages. If you don't use them, they're not ever read from disk.

Try 'snake' also.. ;) Or
doctor, hanoi, gomoku, blackbox, mpuz, 5x5, decipher, dunnet, lm, life, morse-region, pong, solitaire, studlify-region...
Cool, I didn't know of the other games, thanks! :-)
Tetris (itch) (crazy Piri) Mac Os Version
Well.. just look at the sourcecode.. 19.9MB.. I wonder, if there isn't a quake-engine also included.. ;)
Hi,
I am a really beginner with Mac and Terminal. After I applied this hint in terminal, I have noticed that my Tetris did turn out to be the black and white version.
I know Rob mentioned that if $TERM is set to VT100 (in Terminal Preferences), it'll show up as B&W version. And if I like the color version, I have to set $TERM to ansi.
Maybe what rob said is very obvious to many advenced Mac users out there, but I have tried to change mine into color version without luck. Can somebody be kindly walkthrough the steps for me on how to change the $TERM to ansi? I'll be very very appreciated for your help!

Look in Terminal -> Preferences; you'll see a drop-down menu where you can set $TERM. Then just open a new Terminal window after changing it.
-rob.
When I went to Terminal preferences, it just had two things- /bin/tcsh and open a saved .term . It had a select from file thing, but I don't know were to find it. sorry to be such a bother- im just a beginer
