Ports of NetSpades
==================
The Unix versions of the NetSpades clients *should* run anywhere that the
SLang and GTK libraries are available. I've run it successfully on the
following platforms:
Linux 2.0.36
Linux 2.2.X
FreeBSD 2.2.7
FreeBSD 3.0
Solaris 2.5.1
Solaris 2.6
Your mileage may vary. If you manage to get NetSpades running on some other
platform, please send me an email, I'd love to hear about it.
In addition to these, Doug Hudson is working on a Win32 client in Visual
Basic(ewww). I believe he has it mostly finished, and you can find it at
http://www.cse.msu.edu/~hudsond2/programming/programming.html. At least
until he graduates.
I have heard rumors of a Java client as well, but haven't seen any code yet.
If you would like to try porting the client to a new platform, you are
welcome to use my code (it is GPL, after all), but you may find it easier to
simply write a client which conforms to the "spades protocol" which I use to
communcate between client and server. This is all fully documented in the
file SocketSpec.txt.
