SDL_Console project needs a new author

Hello, I figured this would be an appropriate place to post this. In
short: I’m the author of the SDL_Console project. I don’t have the time
to work on this project anymore and am looking for someone else to take
it over. A lot of people use it and send me bug fixes, updates and
requests for it but I don’t have the time to put them into the project
and release. So instead of letting the project stagnate longer I’m going
to give it away to a new author. If anyone is interested please email me
back. I thought the people on this mailing list would be interested.

Two questions:

First, did you ever get around to making it support resizing similar to
GUI IRC clients? I seem to remember it worked like console IRC clients
last time I tried it, which is to say that it made a mess when you shrink
the console…

Second, have you actually added real OpenGL support? ;)On Fri, Jul 12, 2002 at 11:11:09PM -0500, Garrett wrote:

Someone else did some major work adding OpenGL support. It seems to
work fine.

I’m not sure what you mean about the resizing issue. It can be
resized and doesn’t make a mess or anything. Try downloading the current
version off the webpage. It has a demo. The demo runs in OpenGL mode too.
