Well once I figured it out I have to say that is awesome stuff, I only can imagine how long it took to create a text version of star wars, but either that is cool. Got any more ASCII text stories like that floating around?

mmm... it doesn't seem to work, it says that 'telnet' is not recognizable as a command, it would of been nice to see it, might just go try it on my friend's computer. its amazing just how much time people have these days...

Enjoy Indeed this is quite old but I still enjoy watching it from time to time. Just to clarify this isn't the entire movie only about 1/3 of it. This isn't just a windows feature, the thing is on the net, not hardcoded into windows so you can see it on mac and linux too. You just need telnet to do this, contact your ISP for more info on if you have telnet or not. You do not even need to go through all of these steps. Just point your browser here: telnet://towel.blinkenlights.nl to go to it and it will open the cmd automatically if you have telnet support.

As I said above, you need telnet. Contact your ISP for more info. QUOTE(silver_wolves @ Oct 28 2007, 03:09 AM) Can you tell me what is CMD please? And how to start it? CMD is an abbreviation for Command, or Command prompt. If you are on a windows machine you can just go under start> run and type cmd. If you have a mac you can find the terminal under Applications>Utilities. Different distros of linux may have the terminal in different places but I'd check under the applications menu if your on a linux machine. Once again, you do not have to use the terminal to do this, just go to telnet://towel.blinkenlights.nl and the terminal will open by itself and start playing if you have telnet.

lmao nice quality! I would love to see more CMD work like this, this must have taken a lot of time and effort to make I imagine. Yays to the developers.
