Product Description:
Red Pill is a free screensaver for Mac OS X. It displays strips of green alien code which slowly draw themselves on the screen as they sweep towards you in 3D. It may bear a certain resemblance to graphics seen in a popular Sci Fi movie trilogy.
Unlike other similar screensavers, this one is true 3D with depth fogging and motion trails. It was written in Cocoa specifically for the Mac and uses OpenGL. It is accelerated for AltiVec/Velocity Engine.

What's new in this version:
Tiger compatibility release; thanks to Dylan McNamee for debugging assistance, as I don't have Tiger yet... For those who are interested, the behavior of the NSImageRep class changed when reading 8 bit monochrome PNG files, resulting in RedPill not recognizing its own textures...

gracias for you (and your friend Dylan's help) on the Tiger update...
as someone else has written, i was so sad earlier today after installing tiger to notice Red Pill dropping blocks instead of glyphs. Cool to see you've modded code appropriately. Couldn't find your website on the link from the Red Pill prefs menu...site gone/down? ... keep up the awesome work amigo. it's something both stellar and creepy to walk in late at night and have the only illumination be the glowing green of your saver. :-) peace.
