Hey folks --
I compiled naim, an ncurses based Instant Messenger client for hpcmips.
It works great on my z50. I've made the binary available for download:
http://surfer.ath.cx:8000/hpc
You need to have ncurses installed for it to work. The entire ncurses
package filled up my little 128MB CF card pretty quickly, so I only copied the
libraries and the relevant terminfo files (xterm and vt100). Note that
the precompiled ncurses package you download from netbsd.org expects the
terminfo database to be located in /usr/pkg/share.
One thing that's a bit disappointing is the size of the naim executable -- it
is over 1MB. Anyone know of a smaller console based IM client?
cheers,
-steve
