Bug#486410: ITP: libglkterm - implementation of the glk API with ncurses support
Package: wnpp
Version: 0.8.0-1
The glkterm library is an implementation of the glk API for terminals or
terminal emulators which uses the ncurses library. glk is a standard
which specifies an API for interpreters of Interactive Fiction (a.k.a.
Text Adventures). Such interpreters are programs that 'run' a game file
that contains the machine-readable representation of an interactive
story (Text Adventure). glk provides a clean API for all input and
output related tasks that such an interpreter has to accomplish, for
example reading text from the keyboard, printing text on the screen and
displaying a status bar. A prominent interpreter that uses glkterm is
glulxe.
I have drafted some Debian packages:

The purpose of packaging glkterm is making the glulxe interpreter run on
Debian. The corresponding drafts of Debian packages for glulxe are here:

IANADD, so I am looking for a DD as a sponsor.
The packages above are designed for 'Lenny'.
