Many moons ago I wrote a simple screensaver for the Mac that ran under
Pyro under Mac OS 7. It used the elementary O(n²) algorithm for up to
a few dozen bodies in 2D, so providing an entertaining way to prevent
screen burnout. Recently I started thinking about planning to rebuild
this, but better.

But it seems that people smarter than me are far ahead of the game.
Hurray! Please, will there be a Mac OS X screensaver using Gravit?
(Random start position, with centre of mass stationary near centre of
screen, and some respectable lump go angular momentum; randomly max-
saturation colours-colliding things acquiring weighted average of
colours of ancestors.)
