OK, what keys are you using? I guess <space> to fire and...?

That may be possible. A cruder method I use for xgb and xmame is to launch
them with a script that maps the keys for the game, then remaps them to the
default on exit. Not great, but if you don't try to run other programs that
need button input at the same time as the game, it gets the job done.

Oh, it does, a lot. Thanks for the info and the port.

Is the constant output to the console (frame xxx...) debugging data? How do
you exit cleanly? <cntrl> <c> works sometime, but hangs the iPAQ others.
Remapping the buttons so I can use the menu should fix that.

Where did you compile prboom? On the skiff? Is you source (with a working
makefile) available? I need to get gcc up on my udrive...
