Help needed: Transport Tycoon Dlx for PPC

Maybe some of you know Transport tycoon, its an old dos transport-economy game.

Some guys over at the transpor tycoon forum have reprogrammed Transport Tycoon Deluxe in C++, called OpenTTD and they have ported it successfully to many OS´ like BeOS MacOS Linux and so on. Lately someone on the forum has ported it to a Sharp Zaurus, and its already working with a few glitches.

Someone with medium programming skills shud easily be able to port it over to PPC 2002 or WM2003 or whatever, as it should just be a problem of compilating the whole thing the right way.

I, for myself own an Asus A620 and im a major PPC and Transport tycoon freak, and id love to see it ported. Unfortunately i have no programming experience at all, so this is why im asking for help here.

I would appreciate if someone would at least look into it, and see if he can give the developpers of the zaurus version a tip how to make it compatible with PPCs.

Thanks for any help.

I know it's pretty easy one way - PocketQuake was ported to Linux, though is quite featureless and slow for a 206MHz arm. I must say though, out of all the port requests, this has had the most details :P
