GTK Build

MadeOfBees · April 6, 2013, 08:29

This might have been asked before, but what happened to the gtk build?

The sdl version is kind of horrible looking and I have a few chars that I totally dont let die by making backups of the savefile. Kind of irritating to do without the gtk build. Anyways, long story short is there any plans for a new gtk build or a patch to apply the old one to newer versions?

See this thread: Angband - status of the Linux ports?

If you don't like SDL, you could try X11 or curses. Neither supports graphics.

Some other threads about Linux ports:

Fixing the X11 port
Windows walls under Linux (includes help on running X11 with subwindows)
X11 Tile Support

The x11 port is basic, at best. The curses version works a lot like moria used to, which I like. I was just hoping someone could direct me to a way to reinstate the gtk port.

EDIT: After reading the link you gave me, it seems like im shit out of luck, bummer.
