i'm sure someone has already written this program, but i just wrote it again! this is basically a graffiti wall that uses a 3x8 stack of advanced monitors. it has a toolbar to allow you to change colors and type words (assuming you only want to type lowercase words with latin characters) and may at some point in the future also support uppercase and non-latin characters.

instructions:

install the program on a computer attached to a (preferably 3x8) bank of advanced monitors. run
bb <side> <savefile>
and start drawing!

if you want to run the program as a startup script, you can edit the side and saveFile variables at the start of the script in lieu of command line arguments.

also at the beginning of the script are some other useful variables that will allow you to move the toolbar, change some colors, etc.

install:
pastebin get K7FPfgZS bb
