Here's my first lua script.

MineSweeper

A classic minesweeper game.

Some of the features:

• 3 difficulty levels
  
• dynamically fits any terminal size greater or equal to 28x6
  
• optimized for SMP (it sends as few as possible text changes to clients)
  
• sends redstone signals depending on the game output (feature suggested by Neowulf)
  - if the game is won, a 2 seconds signal to the back (could be used to trigger a door)
  - if the game is lost, a 1 second signal to the bottom (could be used to trigger a TNT block)
  These are the default values, they can be modified by editing the top of the source file.

Installation

Available on cc-get, simply type:

cc-get install minesweeper

If you want to instal it manually, the source code is available on the script cc-get page (click on the 'minesweeper' file).

Changelog

That'd be an interesting feature />

Nice!

Player wins, send a pulse out the back of the computer (to open a door or something).
Player loses, send a pulse out the bottom of the computer (to trigger the TNT pile beneeth their feet).

or add terminal controlled turtles for a more user friendly game of "real" minesweeper the turtles could even be used to repair and randomize the playing field

Thanks for the tip, it's now implemented!

I thought about that, I'll see if I find time to code it.

You're free to use my code as long as you license your work under the GPL.

I was thinking the turtle(s) could start by laying out a surface layer, which would hide the TNT placed afterwards underneath. Then the computer would be used to control the uncovering process of the field. It would be some kind of "real life" enactment of the game action.

Already possible, in a way, since you can place a TNT block underneath which will be powered when a game is lost />
