Well, sort of. This started life as a C program which died when I couldn't be bothered doing the memory management required to make it look better. I've ported it to processing, it still needs work doing and the code is pretty nasty.

As with dla, download from http://nickj.nfshost.com/download/rd.zip and unpack in your sketchbook directory.

Unchanged, I can get it to run for about 10 frames, then I get an 'Array Out of Bounds' exception. If I manually set the size to be much smaller (400x400, for example), it runs, but is pretty choppy.

What's it supposed to do?

Apologies - it's the old 'it worked my machine' thing.
I'm reworking the whole thing for specifically for processing but don't hold your breath.

the blurb goes "Rain falls on a sloped surface and the drops run down and coalesce. ported from C in about .5 of a day. I'd run into the sand with it, memory management etc etc, I've butchered it slightly to get round  the bits I didn't get working in C. It's still not working really"
