This one however, has a little kitten that >chases a mouse around. I originally saw it as a Mac desktop Init (or whatever the fool things are called). I later found a Unix port, called 'xneko' ('neko' being Japanese for 'cat'). Reading the program's source is entertaining, since all the comments (and documentation) are in Kanji. The program is quite simple, though, and works fine everywhere I've tried it. One ftp location is expo.lcs.mit.edu:contrib/xneko.tar.Z. It's probably on Uunet too, though I haven't checked. Have fun: the kitten is just as disgustingly cute as most real kittens, and not *nearly* as demanding :-) AMBAR

A Mr. Satoshi Asami sent me email about "oneko", a much improved
"xneko". Unlike "xneko", the cat in "oneko" runs *OVER* windows. It's
terminally cute (orders of magnitude cuter than xneko ;-). I've
enclosed a copy of his message, describing where to obtain it, as he
requested that I post a copy here.
As the anonymous ftp site is in Japan, it would be nice if someone
could grab the sources and make them available on this side of the
Pacific (I've grabbed a copy, but I only have outgoing anonymous ftp
permission -- I can get sources, but I can't make anything available for
anonymous ftp).
I've loaded it to ~ftp/pub/X/oneko.tar.Z at jyu.fi [128.214.7.5], there is
a ready binary in the package for SPARC/SunOS 4.1, if you dare use it.

I was able to get the code on the second try; to save the networks a lot of grief, I'll make a compressed tar file of the source and put it in the anonymous ftp directory for pulsar.princeton.edu. I also added a man page (rough one) based on the man page I found with xneko.
