| 17 | Everyone seems to be writing stupid Tower of Hanoi programs. |
| 18 | Well, here is the stupidest of them all: the hanoi solving vi macros. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | Save this article, unshar it, and run uudecode on hanoi.vi.macros.uu. |
| 21 | This will give you the macro file hanoi.vi.macros. |
| 22 | Then run vi (with no file: just type "vi") and type: |
| 23 | :so hanoi.vi.macros |
| 24 | g |
| 25 | and watch it go. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | The default height of the tower is 7 but can be easily changed by editing |
| 28 | the macro file. |
| 29 | |
| 30 | The disks aren't actually shown in this version, only numbers representing |
| 31 | each disk, but I believe it is possible to write some macros to show the |
| 32 | disks moving about as well. Any takers? |
