What is fallout-terminal-clone?

fallout-terminal-clone is a modest recreation of the terminal hacking system
in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas developed with curses. It runs directly
in your terminal or command prompt. I mostly did this as a fun and 
interesting way to explore C.

Instructions

Use WASD to move, and ENTER to choose your selected letter. Ctrl-C to quit.

Building

WINDOWS

    Requirements:
        MinGW installed with the following packages:
        - mingw32-gcc
        - mingw32-pdcurses (dev and dll)

    Once the above dependencies are satisfied, simply open 
    a command prompt in the source directory and run:
        make

    If you get an error about gcc not being found, you most
    likely didn't add MinGW tools to your path. Either do
    that, or change the line:
CC = gcc
    to read:
CC = C:\MinGW\bin
    (assuming you installed MinGW in that location)

LINUX

    Requirements:
        - gcc
        - ncurses

    Once the above dependencies are satisfied, simply open 
    a terminal in the source directory and run:
        make

OSX

    Requirements:
        Xcode Tools (just run xcode-select --install)

    Once this is finished, simply open 
    a terminal in the source directory and run:
        make

TODO list:

Custom movement keys
Screen centering
Possible mouse support?

Bugs:

Fallout 3 doesn't seem to play nice with the launching. But I haven't
tested this much. You may just be better off putting this program in a
batch file.

/u/aftli_work for suggesting macros (before I knew what they were)
