Description
LSDino produces a wide array of 43 patterns and color cycles them while performing a variety of warps and distortions. Additional patterns can be created by combining the 45 base patterns in various ways either through configuration options or the programs random pattern mode.
Linux version were apparently available, but were not supported in the final 1.0b release due to use of x86 assembly. I've been unable to find any of the prior Linux releases.
