| Everyone seems to be writing stupid Tower of Hanoi programs. |
| Well, here is the stupidest of them all: the hanoi solving vi macros. |
| |
| Save this article, unshar it, and run uudecode on hanoi.vi.macros.uu. |
| This will give you the macro file hanoi.vi.macros. |
| Then run vi (with no file: just type "vi") and type: |
| :so hanoi.vi.macros |
| g |
| and watch it go. |
| |
| The default height of the tower is 7 but can be easily changed by editing |
| the macro file. |
| |
| The disks aren't actually shown in this version, only numbers representing |
| each disk, but I believe it is possible to write some macros to show the |
| disks moving about as well. Any takers? |
