+eWalker is a simple random walker program that uses ReWindow to handle windowing and mouse operations.
+
+This is a simple random walker that has a little twist that if the user clicks the mouse over the window it "blows" the walker away from the mouse pointer.
+
+I have not got to grips with setting up a ReWindow project yet, so, clone ReWindow and then replace main.cpp with the main.cpp code from here.
+
+Hopefully soon I can set this up properly as an independant project.
+
+I have also included a simple test program to open a window as well called test.cpp.
