Generates a 'Matrix'-like screen of falling characters in your terminal
[![rmatrix](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Fierthraix/rmatrix/master/rmatrix.gif)](https://asciinema.org/a/IjJyH88BeocsHvJpKJYqvmnuT)

The original [`cmatrix`](https://github.com/abishekvashok/cmatrix) was written in C, and crashes when you wildly resize the window.
The rust version is memory-safe, and doesn't crash so easily.
This version uses `crossterm` for cross-platform terminal support without needing `ncurses` installed.

## Controls
| Key | Control |
| -- | -- |
| 1-9 | Speed the letters fall (1 is fastest, 9 is slowest) |
| Shift + 1-9 | Colour of the characters |
| r | Rainbow mode |

## Development

Install the local pre-commit hooks with:

GitHub CI runs the same checks on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
