ekitai.hs is a terminal fluid simulator written in haskell. it is a submission to RUHacks 2021. the simulation algorithm is quite simple, it's a similar particle based one that games like 'the sandbox' and 'terraria' use.
## Usage
-ekitai reads a text file with the desired simulation. samples can be found in the samples/ directory of this repo. valid characters for the simulation are as follows
+ekitai reads a text file with the desired simulation. samples can be found in the samples/ directory of this repo or at /usr/share/ekitai/samples. valid characters for the simulation are as follows
- `#`: wall block
- `~`: water
- `@`: pump, spawns water below it
- `O`: drain, removes water around it
+you can also consult the man page with `man ekitai`.
