Any news of Ktulu?

Post by Marek Soszynski »

Any news of Ktulu by Rahman Paidar? Ktulu 8, sold through Lokasoft http://shop.lokasoft.nl/index.php, dates from June 2006. However, I have since seen a Ktulu 9.SE.1. Does anyone know anything about it?

Marek,

Apparently Rahman Paidar is currently doing his national service in Iran. This will be completed 'soon' after which he'll be able to resume the development of Ktulu.

Best regards,

Steve

Interesting.

It would be nice If the new Ktulu can support Unix, my favourite OS.

Rahman emailed me today:
Ktulu is an alive engine and I am still working on Ktulu.
I can't give you anytime about the date of the new version but the new version is on
the way of developing. I don't know where you read about Ktulu 9, this version is not
yet in market. Recently I have bought a new Dual Core Laptop, maybe I add Dual Processor
support for the new version but can't you any promise.
