Not your usual terminal! And don’t actually use it, it’s not practical and you may need to see a doctor for your eyes if you use it for too long. Just made it for fun.

Note

In 2015, xmasterm.py has been updated, the following video shows the newer version. (2015-12-01T08:41:20Z)

You can get xmasterm.py on Gist.

I basically took codes of Terminal Widget from Urwid and twisted them a bit. Since it’s easy to access each character and their (color) attributes, so I assign the red and green colors and add a very simple falling snow effect. The code definitely does not run efficiently, but it’s just for fun.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
