Splash Text is a unified system for splash text, freely usable by any program. The invocation of the system can be fine-tuned to the needs of the invoker. It comes with some presupplied splash files, but you can also supply your own. Splash Text also comes with a simple command-line wrapper program.
The main function of the library, splashtext(), only requires compatibility with the C11 language and standard library, plus the extension allowing dollar signs in identifiers, assuming you define the SPLASHTEXT$NODIRS macro when building. Building with the makefile (which doesn't define SPLASHTEXT$NODIRS) requires compatibility with POSIX, and installation with the makefile additionally requires compatibility with the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard. FHS compliance is also required for the the splashtext command-line utility. I will be happy to port Splash Text to any open and actively maintained systems. Ports to obsolete or mallicious systems will not be considered.
See the manpage splashtext(6) for details.
