Porting OLD dos(?) games to SDL

SDL Development
1

Hi all,

Just a quickie :wink:
Does anyone know of an archive of “abandonware” with source on the net ?
maybe I can find some old games to port to SDL, and more specifically, linux
?

Purely as an educational excersise for myself …

thanks
Clive [ Entro-P ]

The big problem is that most of the “abandonware” applications and games
you will find will be purely binary. You’ll have to re-write them from
scratch… which in itself is fun to do. :]

This is one of the reasons that I’m writing my Deluxe Paint clone.
