-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi John,
I'd be very interested in this egg, especially if I can use it as a means to learn SDL, but I do not believe I can directly commit to using it, as I don't yet have a use case (though I have always wanted to use SDL to visualize point cloud / LIDAR data if possible). In any case, I'll watch as the development progresses, and re-evaluate whether or not I can afford some time to sink into learning SDL and using it within CHICKEN. > Currently the project needs people to help with: > > - Manual testing (installing, running examples) on different > platforms - Writing unit tests and semi-automated test programs - > Writing API reference docs, guides, and tutorials - Creating > detailed installation instructions for different platforms - > Creating feature demos and example games/programs > Some basic tutorials for setup would go a long way here, so I don't have to worry as much about getting SDL to work as I do learning the API and how to manipulate data. Bear in mind I don't consider myself either a clueless beginner nor an expert in the community, but something basic would certainly help. If you're willing to walk me through it on IRC sometime (find DeeEff in #chicken), I could even write a "hello world" style tutorial myself. I would venture that it would be better to get a more solid API before something like that, but it's up to you. That said, I'll keep watching this on the mailing list if it pops up, so please continue your work. I'm not in the business of making games, but SDL can be used for more than that if I understand correctly. Exciting times to be a part of this community indeed! - -- Jeremy Steward -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJWOvyXAAoJEHVwwAZUeZnZAjUP/iTvAWoCV0qOQ4tANIg8yLBi IF20smwiP0bhVdp1FttW8IB2Wx7DwCX/IF0Er3mf2NSenIaNmEl2gsMWbkn6u+Xj YZozAV3GwlmM4UGnK5kmAIL/cYa9eF6r+FQPKD7FlSrgzOkVgMYNjZ+Nyr64btKU V0pylCGIj0tyvPBY0zWjQLUnfOTVBqqvxk5JjAiLeEdmAUEKZRRi2iyaflUu4w4O KFe650MBv+lRiIUrnE3QzRoA4ulWdQe70OxSFY1pH09sgrNejpiIjMh2in33zBLc bWwtGBmR9WH1GZLBSuoRBgG1MvZdqLMGIDPsldHWe4FOW41Xv5/QuyKdjqGWFaRU C7M5/tSDLbZTGtWy0i52SY92cOH5FCYz9h92V7yXfcPa5EKh7vFlrcEvborIiOIi PvsU9lOC51U5e8b9qF5+QmpRRza23o8EMIS6F2sUDkrLfAgJ+DKX9Fm7q/+HOtR4 S1xgNbj4CDHYIfklILtzrwVVqPqdAg9+kZ1P1gPaLvDt0W9yX8GflBYrBde84qkC TJcQtfaDei+desfqomvOEgi9+56nJSlsGW9gYLjtpj94e51ZTr7c9i9pEipYaf/+ xouE5wrIqsVcQ1dPMobKO+XfAHyo8M6v0HlEjGJ6YD1Rbo593X3jnrjNl0CJFr6e FZGBV4b3XeMq3QJLaPZn =TGDD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
