######History

I made this while I played Halo 3 around 2008/2009. Why?

  1. I needed better control of power weapons during matches
  2. I wanted to start learning C
  • This was probably my first C program (besides a Hello World)

It was done quickly and dirty. It's pretty shitty but it did its job.
