neetdraw ======== 'neetdraw' is a terminal drawing application with multiplayer support. image::neetdraw.png[align="center"] Packages -------- Regular releases are sporadic. git master should be stable enough. You can get a package with the latest development version using Arch Linux's https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/neetdraw-git[AUR], or as a https://git.janouch.name/p/nixexprs[Nix derivation]. Building -------- Build dependencies: CMake, pkg-config, liberty (included), termo (included) + Runtime dependencies: ncursesw, libev $ git clone --recursive https://git.janouch.name/p/neetdraw.git $ mkdir neetdraw/build $ cd neetdraw/build $ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug $ make To install the application, you can do either the usual: # make install Or you can try telling CMake to make a package for you. For Debian it is: $ cpack -G DEB # dpkg -i neetdraw-*.deb Usage ----- For standalone mode you can run the program without arguments: $ neetdraw To run as a server for other clients to connect to and draw simultaneously: $ neetdraw -s :1234 To connect to a running server, run: $ neetdraw -c localhost:1234 Once you have the program running, simply select a colour you like from the palette and draw by pressing and dragging the mouse. Use the middle mouse button to move the canvas. You can store the current image to `drawing.bin` and load it back using the 's' and 'l' keys respectively. To just export the current picture for printing it on a terminal, press 'e'. To export for IRC, press 'E'. Known Issues ------------ VTE-based terminals, such as gnome-terminal, are terminally broken and you will experience drawing artefacts. Those are neither a problem of this application, nor a problem of ncurses as far as I can tell. To achieve the best results, please use a decent terminal such as rxvt-unicode or xterm. These two are feature-full and *fast*. st also works great. Even so, try not to strain the application too much. It can and will break if you flood the communication channel with the terminal.
