Generates your geek code
Copyright © 1999-2003 Chris Gushue <chris@blackplasma.net>
This program will generate a geek code block for you by simply choosing which codes suit you from the screen. I am not a very good programmer, I just dabble a little every now and then. Originally, I started this project in Visual Basic, but decided to use DJGPP v2 instead, partially because it is free, partially because it is more portable, and partially because Visual Basic sucks :)
This software is no longer being updated and I offer no support at all.
The code has been successfully compiled on the following platforms:
Linux 2.2 – Debian GNU/Linux (potato) – gcc-2.95.1/glibc-2.1.2
Linux 2.0.34 – Debian 2.1 – gcc 2.7.2.3
Linux 2.2 – RedHat 6.0 – egcs-2.91.66
Linux 2.2.13 – SuSE 6.3 – gcc 2.7.2.3

Any many more…
If you have successfully (or unsuccessfully) compiled it on a different platform, let me know (although, judging from the above list, it should compile on pretty much anything).

I recently noticed that is is also in the FreeBSD ports collection and you can view the info here.
