Introduction.
Projects and packages/ports for Haiku.
Contact:
arfonzo, on #haiku (Freenode IRC network).
gcc4 and gcc2 support.¶
Unless otherwise noted, all of these have been compiled on gcc4 hybrid (gcc4h) against a nightly hrev. Unless explicitly stated that gcc2(h) has been tested, they may not work on R1/A3 and/or gcc2(h).
For reference, my main Haiku system is a gcc4h nightly >= hrev44157-33-g649380e. I tend to build in a
VirtualBox VM, with 8 Intel processors @ 3.67ghz and 8192 megabytes memory.
My Haiku projects.
- FonzoTerm, ANSI-friendly Terminal fork.
- RuBe, Ruby bindings for the Haiku API.
- Ruby syntax highlighting support for Pe. Download: 20120502.
Binary packages.
Yes, you still need to read the original documentation, and meet the dependencies (generally via installoptionalpackage and haikuporter), please ensure you have done so before contacting me, thanks.Please stop hounding me for source code/patches: unless explicitly stated, all binaries have been built from the official sources without modifications.

An improved Quake 3 engine, built upon ID Software's open sourced code. Requires SDL. Currently unplayable on my system, see README.
- You must read the README.txt: needs original game files and updates.
- Screenshots (showing the demonstration movie match).
- To build this yourself, follow the BEPs on HaikuPorts and stop asking me for magic src k0d3z: I don't have any.
L
libpng 1.4.12.
PNG library. Built from the official sources.
O
Title screen.
OpenTTD 1.2.1.

P
pMARS SDL 0.9.2-5.
SDL-based CoreWars interpreter.
Powder 117.
A graphical roguelike for many platforms and consoles. You'll need SDL libs. This compiles fairly easily on Haiku, but I thought I'd post it here for the lazy.

Q
Doing some calculations.
qsimplesheet 0.3.9.
Qt-based spread sheet application.
Qt 4.8.0.
Cross-platform UI library. As the official downloads are from November 2010, you may wish to use these updated binary packages instead. Testing only: I do not reccommend this for production usage.
- The above is the minimal version required to run Qt4 applications.
- Here's a development version, if you want to compile Qt4 applications:
- Install into /boot.
- Qt 4.8.0 for Haiku gcc4(h) nightlies newer than August 2012: 20120921-min, or 20120921-dev.
qTADS 2.1.3-git.
Qt and SDL-based multimedia TADS interpreter, for interactive fiction. Compatible with TADS2, TADS2, HTML TADS.
- Install into /boot/apps, for example. Or, drop the binary/link into /boot/common/bin.

Editing a LaTeX file & About.
Texmaker 3.3.4.
Qt-based Texmaker is a free, modern and cross-platform LaTeX editor that integrates many tools needed to develop documents with LaTeX, in just one application. Texmaker includes unicode support, spell checking, auto-completion, code folding and a built-in pdf viewer with synctex support and continuous view mode.
- As always, please see the README.txt--you may need some external binaries depending on what you want to do (i.e., converting formats).
- I have only tested the LaTeX editing functions.
- Make sure you meet all the dependencies: "The Qt toolkit (version >= 4.7) and the Poppler library (version >= 0.16) are required to compile this version of Texmaker." - TexMaker download page.
