The attachment for the special chars version(not compatible with WIN7): http://115.com/file/e78zm09o#TheMatrix.rar

The code below (normal chars) tested under XP (compatible with WIN7, but can't FullScreen).

Code: Select all

@echo off & title The Matrix & setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
for /f "tokens=2 delims=[]" %%a in ('ver') do for /f "tokens=2 delims=. " %%a in ("%%a") do set /a "FullScreen=-((%%a-6)>>31)"

  ) do for /f "tokens=1,2 delims=:" %%b in ("%%a") do (
    >nul reg add HKCU\Console\TheMatrix /v %%b /t reg_dword /d 0x%%c /f
  )
  start "TheMatrix" /max "%ComSpec%" /c "%~f0" 1 & exit
) else ( >nul reg delete HKCU\Console\TheMatrix /f )

set "Matrix="
set /a "wid=80,hei=50,iMax=wid*hei, sumOfStream=wid*2/2"
for /l %%i in (1 1 !iMax!) do set "Matrix= !Matrix!"
set "bss=!Matrix: =!"

Hi Neorobin,

I rewrote it with a much simpler and less obfuscated algo.
I would have to take the set/a part apart because I don't think it's "good style".
Try to avoid the backSpace can cause flicker :idea:

TheMatrix.CMD

Code: Select all

@echo off &setlocal enableDelayedExpansion &title %~n0 &color 0A


set /a $cols    = 80
set /a $lines   = 50

set        "$dictionary=~@#$&*()_+{}|<>?`[]\;',./1234567890"
set "$dictionary.length=35"

mode.COM con cols=!$cols! lines=!$lines! 2>nul
cmdow.EXE /fs 2>nul

set /a $cols  -= 2
set /a $lines -= 1

for /l %%? in () do (
       ::
       if !$stringsActive! lss !$cols! (
              ::
              set /a $activateString = !random! %% !$cols!
              ::
              for %%? in (

                     !$activateString!

              ) do   if !$string[%%?]! lss 1 (

                     set /a $string[%%?]    = !random! %% !$lines! + 1
                     set /a $stringsActive += 1
              )
       )
       ::
       set /a $ = !$lines! &for /l %%§ in (

              !$lines!, -1, 2

       ) do   set /a $ -= 1 &for %%? in (

              !$!

       ) do   set "$line[%%§]=!$line[%%?]!"

       set "$line[1]=" &for /l %%? in (

              1, 1, !$cols!

       ) do   if !$string[%%?]! gtr 0 (

              set /a $string[%%?] -= 1 &if !$string[%%?]! lss 1 (
                     ::
                     set /a $stringsActive -= 1
              )

              set /a $char = !random! %% $dictionary.length &for %%? in (

                     !$char!

              ) do   set "$line[1]=!$line[1]!!$dictionary:~%%?,1!"

       ) else set "$line[1]=!$line[1]! "

       set "$raster=" &for /l %%? in (

              1, 1, !$lines!

       ) do   set "$raster=!$raster! !$line[%%?]! "

       cls
       echo. $stringsActive=!$stringsActive!_
       <nul set /p "=!$raster:~0,-1!"
)
Just for fun I used QBFCompiler and renamed TheMatrix.EXE to TheMatrix.SCR. We have a real screensaver LoL :lol:

That one's not so good here in Win7 32 bit.

This one has a running string on line one column 1 that is updated. Win7 32 bit.
It's a nice effort but not as polished as Neorobin's.

Neorobin's works fine in Win7 32 bit too.

set /p obviously works different on win7. :|

With me winXP, it flickers due to the backSpace.

One of many parts of this code that confuse me...

1: Are these characters used for any reason, other than, because you can? § $

2: And why do many of the variable names contain such characters?

No explanation needed for '!'

Boom

There are many characters with some very special characteristics for example:
'?' and '*' will be dropped in a simple for loop.
'~' cannot be used for string substitution.
'$' cannot be used to strip quotes from metavariables.
';' as a variable name cannot be displayed by using the set command, only by echo.
'!' cannot be used as variable name if delayed expansion is enabled.
etcetera..

[meta]variables [a-Z,0-9] on the other hand are considered "safe" but sometimes problems can arise.
Bug in function :Format
The reason I use them is to avoid these type of problems but also to keep the "normal" [meta]variables free.
Over time, I devellopped a preference for some characters like '?', '*', '~', '§' and '$'

Unless you fully understand their limitations, you should not use exotic characters :!:
