Do you know of a program for the Mac that continually generates 
the digits of pi?

Hello there!

There are a couple of things that you might be interested in.  The program
Mathematica will give you as many digits of Pi as you want.  To do this,
you'd enter 

          N[Pi, 50]

and it would give you 50 digits in the numerical expansion of Pi.  It can
easily handle several thousand digits.  If you don't have access to a copy
of Mathematica, we can send along a few thousand digits.

Other than that, I don't know of any program that continually gives you Pi's
digits.
