The Matrix has you...

These settings emulate Thomas Anderson's terminal in the "The Matrix" (1999) film. It looks great running MatrixHasYou.py, which realistically reproduces (as typed live) the classic scene from the film with the 4 messages: "Wake up, Neo.", "The Matrix has you...", "Follow the white rabbit." and "Knock, knock, Neo."
