Add alt code for 2000/thadgavin
This version allows for delaying between the writing of characters (for curses) or pixels (for SDL). I explained how to reconfigure it in the README.md file. This is useful for more modern systems as well as if you're sensitive to rapid swirling. Typo fixes in README.md.

## Alternate code:
|
||||
|
||||
An alternate version exists which allows you to slow down the printing of the
|
||||
characters, useful for those with modern systems or those who are sensitive to
|
||||
rapid moving swirling. To use:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
make alt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To make the SDL version:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
make thadgavin.alt_sdl
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you wish to reconfigure the delay you can do so like:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
make -DZ=50 clobber alt
|
||||
make -DZS=5000 clobber thadgavin.alt_sdl
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Use `thadgavin.alt` and `thadgavin.alt_sdl` as you would `thadgavin` and
|
||||
`thadgavin_sdl` above.
|
||||
|
||||
The default for the curses alt version is 30 and for SDL it is 150000. The
|
||||
different macros is because the curses version is already slower but it's better
|
||||
to not tie the two values together. The reason for such drastically different
|
||||
numbers is because curses is already slower than SDL.
