it's crazy what you can do with ai now.  i told claude make me a terminal
program in go lang and make sure it does 16cols and 256 colors.  and i told
it i wanted themes to choose from and ssh and rlogin.  and it shot it out.

then i told it to take doc's python television ansi server thing and make it
in go lang and make it easier to setup and here i am streaming iptv in ansi
on my server.

and i'm watching it using the terminal program it made.
