Show HN: Free Hero Mesh: first version ready for public testing is now available

The first version of Free Hero Mesh which is ready for public testing is now available. It is far from being complete, although it is believed to be the minimum needed that someone can try it now.

It is available in a Fossil repository; there are two sources:

* Main: http://zzo38computer.org/fossil/heromesh.ui

* Mirror: http://chiselapp.com/user/zzo38/repository/freeheromesh

(The mirror is not updated as often as the main repository; also, you cannot post bug reports on the mirror, although once changes are pushed to the mirror, any bug reports posted on the main repository will also appear on the mirror, too.)

(A git-fast-export file is available upon request.)

This software requires SDL1 (or a compatibility layer, although I have not tested the compatibility layer), SQLite, and a C compiler that supports C89 with GNU extensions.

If you wish to modify the instruction set or resource set, then Node.js is also required in order to recompile them; if you are not modifying it then this is not required.

Please post questions, comments, and complaints on the NNTP (preferred) or on this Hacker News item. Bug reports may be posted either on here, or on the NNTP, or on the Fossil repository.
