SETI - Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence -- Enhanced version
Use your unused CPU cycles to aid in computations analyzing radio
telescope information for possible signs of extra-terrestrial intelligence.
The project exclusively uses the enhanced version since 2006-05-17.
The port automatically optimizes for the host CPU using the CPUTYPE
variable in /etc/make.conf
Note that there is currently no screensaver support in this version.
