No one interested?

Currently I could build this with a small hack:

https://github.com/cnjinhao/nana

But no sound at all. Because of no ALSA library.

Please note that ALSA library and ALSA itself is not the same.

Porting ALSA library doesn't mean you need to pull in the whole Linux sound 
infrastructure.

Please have a look at it.
