Description

Farout is a shareware screensaver by Mike Chaney. It produces a wide array of patterns (5.0 x 10^97 of them) and then color cycles them while generating the next.

...simply execute FAROUT from the DOS prompt and become addicted!

Although the number of possible patterns is impressive, as opposed to other similar bits of eyecandy, most of the patterns seem highly randomized and aren't all that pleasant to watch. I'd generally recommend Rave over this.

The shareware Farout, beyond v4.1, is time limited to 10 minutes.
