Aesthetics of 90s UI and brutalist architecture.

What it does

Helps you set up QNX through a TUI, saving hundreds of keystrokes.

How I built it

I wrote a simple post-installation wizard for setting up a Raspberry Pi that runs QNX, then I ported the library it relies on to that operating system in question. After a long night of testing, it manages to work correctly and move files to their desired locations. It's almost like I designed it to do that.

What I learned

Today I found out distrobox breaks pretty badly on NixOS (my main OS), would not recommend. It was easier for me to set up the proprietary and non-declarative QNX devkit on WSL Ubuntu than my (real) linux distro.
I spent too much time messing with raw ncurses when dialog did the job far more simply.
Don't mess with school-security wifi, not even ethernet. I have no idea why my Pi can't ping google and I've spent so much time trying to fix it that at this point I don't even want to think about it anymore.
Most non-posix linux commands have not been ported to QNX, and those that have are the BSD versions which work differently from GNU at times: e.g. head cannot take negative numbers.
You have to specify that you're compiling to ARM in order to compile to ARM. I kinda forgot that time lol
Sometimes when bash tells you cannot execute binary, it might be because the partition you are mounted on bars you from adding execute permissions.
Every time I plug in a keyboard the usb port in question stops accepting keyboards after the next restart (it accepts mice!?). Could be overcurrent condition, but that's a problem for future me. I've just dealt with it by plugging in ports repeatedly ~10 times and flashing the firmware if it doesn't work.
