<halcy> Oh I know what you should make
<halcy> WAHa_06x36: Make a STALLMAN BOX
<halcy> WAHa_06x36: Like a buddha box except it displays cool 
        saint ignucius effects and it plays the free software 
        song

And then I went and made it myself.

It is, of course, free software. You can find the source code on github. Users of GNU/Linux are assumed to be capable of compiling it themselves (It pretty much works out to “run make”, needs SDL and freeglut and glew). GNU/Linux graphics drivers are usually proprietary and sometimes terribly buggy, so it might or might not work.

For Microsoft Windows, there is a binary version.

Download:

• Source code
• Binary [Win32]

(It requires a relatively new version of OpenGL to actually run, sorry about that)

Some audio and png code taken from WAHa_06x36 - thank you!

Note to myself:
To remove a directory from an existing git repository there are various ways to do it. The obvious way is

$ git filter-branch --tree-filter 'rm -rf directory/'


Which is just fine for smaller repositories but can take a long time on large repositories with a lot of large files in that directory.
The faster way is to manipulate only the index:

git filter-branch --index-filter 'git ls-files -- DIRECTORY | xargs git update-index --remove' --tag-name-filter cat --prune-empty -f -- --all;


• git ls-files will give you a list of files in the DIRECTORY
• git update-index will remove those files from the index
• And the tag filter is there to include tags
• –prune-empty tells filter-branch to ignore empty commits.

Done.
