[fim-devel] Cool but unknown

[Werner Beroux]

TL;DR Needs a demo, clear install steps, and may be caca.

FIM looks pretty cool. It's however really missing some discoverability.

A home page explaining how to install (at the moment users need to go from http://www.nongnu.org/fbi-improved/ to one of the random links like http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/fbi-improved/ which has a few dead links and downloads but no install info; the install are in the "Screenshot" section?!).

Also a YouTube screencast or some screenshots showing how it can work on various common environments and places it says it works like:

• Ubuntu (works via X)
• Ctrl+Alt+1 to go to TTY (works via frame buffer)
• SSH (works via aa)

I wonder why aa instead of caca? The later seems to do a better job.
