Hi all,

7drl - [http://7drl.org](http://7drl.org)/ \- starts this weekend. I figured 
I'd mention it here, as there are some bindings available to some roguelike 
development themed libraries in the Nim community floating around.

I personally just finished bindings to - 
[http://foo.wyrd.name/en:bearlibterminal](http://foo.wyrd.name/en:bearlibterminal)
 \- which is a terminal emulator with an OpenGL drawing backend. I've never 
used the library but here's a screenshot of it running on my macbook pro -

I'll be posting the bindings on github and updating this thread with the url 
shortly. A buddy of mine is giving them a test run this go round for 7drl, as 
well as Nim, so I'll be supporting the bindings if anything doesn't work 
correctly.

Bindings also exist to another popular roguelike library libtcod -

[https://github.com/Vladar4/libtcod_nim](https://github.com/Vladar4/libtcod_nim)

If anyone has any questions about the competition or wants to hang out during 
it, lots of folks hang out in #rgrd on irc.quakenet.org

Good luck to anyone who decides to compete and if you have any questions feel 
free to ask me here or in #nim !
