Subject: [gentoo-dev] Graphical Installer
Date: Wed, 20 Nov 2002 21:26:14 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021120212614.5cd1a6df.gsfgf@softhome.net> (raw)

I have not heard about any plans for a graphical instller or portage forntend.
I am interested in developing an ncurses based installer/portage frontend.  I just wanted to make sure there was not already a project in place before i got too involved in mine.

I know this isn't a support list, but does anyone know of a good source for ncurces support.  I've read a couple howtos and i think i'm doing everything right, however I'm screwing something up.

Also, where can I find good guidelines for programming/commenting style?  Should i just read gentoo code or is there some specific, auhoritative guide?

One last question, I'm finding classes to be impractical for my installer since the process is fairly linear and no true objects seem to exist.  Is this a bad move, or is a well-organized function based approach acceptable?

Thanks,
Jeff Jeter
