About

This program simulates bouncing balls in a window. You create the balls in a variety of ways, and can set the gravity, elasticity, whether balls collide or not, etc. Software features user-configurable menus, and a DrawingArea widget for use with other Athena widgets. All resources are contained within the program as fallback resources, so, it is not strictly neccessary to install the app-defaults file, except that when using Athena widgets, since the keyboard accelertors will not work if the app-defauls file is not installed. To run the included demos, open a console terminal and type 'run_demos'.
