AKFAvatar - Summary
This project is not part of the GNU Project.
AKFAvatar is software where an image of an avatar appears on the screen and tells things written in a balloon. First the avatar moves slowly in from the right side. Then text is shown in a balloon.
You can use the libakfavatar library from your own C or C++ programs.
There is also a Pascal-binding for GNU-Pascal and Free Pascal.
The program avatarsay can be used as a fancy user interface for textconsole programs, or as a fancy text-reader or manpage-viewer. Furthermore the program supports some basic commands, so it can be used as a scripting-language for simple demos.
Please check out the Max and Maurice Demo!
AKFAvatar needs SDL-1.2 to run. SDL_image is also recommended.

The server Savannah had technical problems the last few days, so some things were/are not available.
The project AKFAvatar is now migrating away from CVS to Git. I was unable to work on my project when Savannah was down. With Git I am more independent from the server or my internet connection in general. And there are other reasons, too.
