This is pretty neat! I can't wait to see what people make with it. Here is my version of a counter: https://hastebin.com/ranomaceha.pl

That's really cool!

I just gave the online demo a debug view, and your counter is the first code I tried (this is a link to your code on the demo site): https://goo.gl/edPZdR

Very cool! Unfortunately, I couldn't get this working in Windows. Appears that the curses library is not compatible. Tried Unicurses with the same effect. Running Python 3.62.

Ran it in Ubuntu with no problem. Looking forward to writing some .dot programs. Well done!

Sorry to hear that. I recently wrote some code to support debugging without curses (both the library and a pun when you are on windows and need it).

It just uses try-catch block to detect if it should go into compatibility mode, so you should be able to use the latest version of the repo without thinking about Curses.

Have fun writing AsciiDots code
