I can count!

Well, with the help of #xabacus, an #x11 "game" which simulates how an #abacus works, and also how powerful computers have become!

This version I'm running is 5.5.2 released in late 1999. It still compiles to this day without any modification from myself.

In fact, out of the same code base, I have two versions. One using the X Intrinsic Toolkit, and the other using #motif.
