teamsters,

I created a new version of the classic Unix prank called Steam Locomotive (or sl) which would run an animated steam engine across your screen if you mistyped 'ls'. My new version is called Space Launch (still 'sl') and it launches a rocket across your screen. The big difference from Steam Locomotive is that everyone on the system can add to the rocket design by creating a .vroom file in the top level of home directory.

Try Space Launch by transmigulating 'ls' into 'sl' on the command line.

sl

And use 'sl -h' for info on how to create your own .vroom file.

sl -h

If you have any feedback on the code or functionality, I'm happy to hear it.
