NetHack for GP2X Beta 2 is available

I am releasing the 2nd beta of my NetHack port for the GP2X.

This port focuses on keeping the classic ASCII look of NetHack, with emphasis on using an on-screen keyboard. If you want a menu-driven graphical interface, check out Dzz's port of NetHack.

At this point, the game should be playable without crashes or major inconveniences. That said, there are still a few items on my TODO list that need to be taken care of before I'm willing to drop the "beta" designation. See README.gp2x for details.

Feedback is welcome!
