Curses and SDL apps for Windows and MacOS


I have now uploaded Curses and SDL versions of Xconq for both Windows and
MacOS to the ftp site. See the download page for details:

http://sources.redhat.com/xconq/ftp.html

The Curses interface (or Cconq) is the oldest Xconq interface. You use a
simple 80 x 24 terminal window where units and terrain are represented by
different characters. You can, however, still play most of the games in the
library with Cconq.

The SDL interface is the newest Xconq interface which is still under
development and therefore incomplete. It has a more modern layout with a
single large map that takes up most of the screen.

In both cases, it is just the application (and for the Windows apps also a
dll) that is found on the ftp site. These files should be dropped into the
top directory of an existing Xconq installation, i.e. the directory where
the Xconq application lives. Both Cconq and XconqSDL can then use the same
support files as Xconq.
