Pterodactyl is saying NSFW words that Talk wouldn’t like.

When I downloaded it, the trail led back to this page:

View source on that page, have a chuckle. :smiley:

Think ansi art is about as good as runes?

That’s all text (and RIPscript) a precursor to postscript/troff (ie PDF)

Both RIPscript and ncruses supports mouse input (ie touch screen events, mouse clicks, scrolling) all from STDIN/STDOUT
