I don't know why, but I felt an urge to try to make this behave like a real text editor. You can do it setting the min and max angle to 0, which of course produces a straight line of text. Then, when you want a newline, set the min and max angle to 90, hit space, set both to 270, hit space, and then back to 0 again, and proceed with typing.

Something about bringing order to this tiny little chaos made me happy, I guess.

I tried hard to understand, but in the end i didn't. Seems like a fun demo, but is there any purpose or use for this outside of typing a couple of sentences?

This Is Not Working (in Firefox)

Working in Android FF, maybe a little too much - can not exit full screen. For a moment felt like the 90's scripts where alert() in a loop would lock you in a browser window.

Very satisfying and captivating demo, even though this is quite simple.

I really wish there was a way to save the typed text, though.
