Hi I would like to contribute and maintain the aalib package:
o http://aa-project.sourceforge.net/ (Homepage) o http://sourceforge.net/projects/aa-project/ (Download location) The package can be found in the following distro: o http://packages.debian.org/stable/libs/aalib1 Ciao Volker -- Here are the setup.hint files: aalib: ====== sdesc: "An ascii art library" ldesc: "AA-lib is a low level gfx library just as many other libraries are. The main difference is that AA-lib does not require graphics device. In fact, there is no graphical output possible. AA-lib replaces those old-fashioned output methods with powerful ascii-art renderer. Now my linux boots with a nice penguin logo at secondary display (yes! Like Win95 does:) AA-lib API is designed to be similar to other graphics libraries. Learning a new API would be a piece of cake!" category: Libs Graphics requires: cygwin libaa1 libaa1: ======= sdesc: "An ascii art library (runtime)" ldesc: "AA-lib is a low level gfx library just as many other libraries are.
