It looks like net.suicide is coming back to life again.  I thought I'd
help kick things off with a program I got from this newsgroup when it
was more active.
I'm not much of a C programmer, but I think this will compile with
the command "cc suicide.c -l curses -o suicide"
The resulting program shows someone stepping out in the path of a
car to commit suicide.  I don't know who to credit for the original
distribution of this program, but when they sent it out another user commented
that there was a better program showing a suicide that involved a tree.
--Enjoy!
