Nethack in Rockbox?

(1/6) > >>

Laertes:
Hi,

I've just discovered and installed Rockbox in my iRiver H320 (using wine  ;) ) and I was wondering if Nethack  works with it. I made a few searchs in the forum and I didn't find anything about it.

Thanks.

bluebrother:
I don't know of any existing plugin for nethack but I'm pretty sure it would work -- it only needs someone interested enough in it to actually start coding ;-)

Laertes:
That would be great! I'm not coder myself, but I could help if anyone tries it. Do you think I should write a feature request?

Rincewind:
that would be a really cool plugin!

If someone wants to start coding, I would like to help, but I don't have enough spare time to do it on my own (especially for the initial work).

I don't know if a feature request helps to get this started. Just keep the discussion running here.

If you want to help, you could try to find a version of nethack that was ported to a small screen/mobile device and gather as much information as possible. I think I read somewhere that there is one for the playstation portable.

i would definitly happy if someone ports nethack to rockbox
i once started to port it by myself but was not very confident with rockbox's source at that time and after some time abandoned that project .. unfortunately i now have all source lost...

i would like to help anyone who starts to work on it, though i can't start this by myself as i work on zxbox and atari 2600 emulator for now
