Hi folks,
I'm trying to write a very simple setup application for some hardware I'm working on.
It's based on mTCP, so it's a cross-compiled C program and I'm building it with OpenWatcom.
I'd love to integrate a very simple TUI like in many of the commercial setup programs (like RSET8019, Sound Blaster drivers, etc.).
That library would need to be:
- compatible with OpenWatcom, ideally compilable on *nix systems
- compatible with 8088 machines
- the only elements I really require are some sort of ListView (for a longer list of entries) and maybe buttons
Any recommendations on what I could use? Other OpenWatcom C programs with some sort of TUI (and MIT/GPL licensed) that I could use as inspiration?
Ideally, I'd just use VB-DOS, but I need some machine code and hacky interrupt routines, so that would probably be more work to integrate than just use C directly.
I'm trying to avoid having to test the software on each machine type (CGA, EGA, VGA, Hercules, etc.) and would rather focus on my main goal.
Thanks for any help,
Tobias
