Make: Online : C64 wordpress theme

C64 wordpress theme

Jason over @ Hackszine writes-

Rod McFarland has put together some really cool AJAX-based CLI themes for WordPress. With his CLI 2.0 theme, you can browse blog entries by "cd"-ing through categories, typing "ls" to list article titles and "cat [articlenum]" to read a post. AJAX is used to make the whole experience seem like you are typing at a terminal, complete with tab-completion. He's even got a variant of the CLI theme that makes the interface look like a Commodore 64. How cool is that! [via]

Meh. A real C64 interface would be limited to 40x25 characters.

Very cool, but not even remotely a C64 interface. The C64 did not have subdirectories. Most of the commands in that theme aren't logical compared to what the C64 was like.

Don't get me wrong, I love the concept and the unix-like one you have the screenshot of, it just has nothing to do with the C64 except the color scheme.

More like a POSIX-Shell Theme
