Would it possible to use ncurses with the psp?

erm... why would you want to do that? Most likely, the answer is no because then you'd need a text terminal emulator or something... I'm fairly certain that nobody's even bothered to look into porting it.

its probably still not terribly hard to port...knock up a half-working terminal emulator, hook it up to stdout/stdin, add a OSK, write a termcap - and compile ncurses for it. no idea why anyone would want to do that though :=P

You could probally do it using the source of peldet. There is a fairly complete vt100 emulator in there, I could extract it out if you want.

You'll need to do quite a bit of work, but it would be possible.

ok thanks!

also, are you considering including ssh into the next version of peldet? that would be the best :D

I do still plan to add ssh to peldet, its a mission getting it all ported to psp though, and I haven't had the time to do it due to other engagements and work on webnab (I'll port the new font renderer back to peldet in the future).

Pre-release pic for the next webnab, don't post it else where please, keep it as a bit of a treat for people reading this thread :)
