Well, that was an interesting adventure. I wrote up a nice comment CGI thingy, entirely in C. I put up the little CGI+forms framework under the GPL here.
I've repackaged hexman as well, because I made 2 real levels (medium and hard difficulty). The game still doesn't do levels consecutively, but it works well enough right now. If you downloaded a previous version, there were some bugs that I thought I had already gotten rid of. The next step in development will be more levels, and then something which makes it easier to play. I suppose eventually I will need an install process, and a data dir.
Just wondering: I have my hexman project page set up, but how do other projects get other people on their list? The advogato system seems quite ... obscure. I think this probably has something to do with me only being Observer. If you have an answer, you can use it to test out my comments form. :-)
Oh yeah: Thanks to voltron, angelsun, and baueran for certifying me!
