These features and bug fixes are in no particular order. I'll get to them as soon as I can, but other people are more than welcome to give these things a try. If you do improve Xswarm, then please send me your new version so that I can incorporate the changes into the next release. Please don't distribute altered versions of this program! I'll post it to the net with all new changes. Jeff Butterworth butterwo@cs.unc.edu Bugs ---- - The xor feature has problems. In the root window any movement of windows over the swarm will cause it to leave an ugly trail. - The program doesn't receive the f.delete event from twm when it is in the root window. - A very short delay between updates (like 5 milliseconds) can cause xswarm to hang. Someone mentioned to me that this may be a race condition. What the heck is a race condition? If anyone wants to look at the non-blocking delay subroutine Nap(), then please feel free. New Features ------------ - Allow the user to control the wasp with the cursor. I did this in the gl implementation on the SGI Iris. It's pretty fun. - Colorize the bees base on speed or proximity to the wasp. Again, I did this on an Iris and it made the whole thing more attractive. - Use shapes other than simple line segments.
