cf this post, I have begun organising a Stars! API. At this stage it is (only) a shared folder on Dropbox with copies of a few tools available from the wiki, and decompiled sources for PaulCr's SHC, SHE and SSH tools(and the decompiler).

The intention is that it will remain an essentially closed source project however anyone who is interested in helping out feel free to contact me. I have already sent shared folder invitations to XyliGUN, PaulCr, m.a@stars, Wumpus, nmid, craebild & Ron. Also the Nova guys ekolis, Daniel. FurFuznel & Aeglos: I have no email addresses for you two.

First steps in the plan are:

  • to define the (en/de)cryption
  • to define a data model for Stars! exodata, the data in the hst, m, x, h & xy files and corresponding encrypted file formats.
  • to design a suitably secure API model to allow manipulation of data
  • to port PaulCr's existing work to Java


With the exception of the (en/de)cryption and the source code itself, the intention is to make publicly available as much detail as possible.
