Terminal file manager nnn is ready for Haiku!

Hi,

Author of file manager nnn here. It’s been a while the team started exploring the possibility of having nnn available on Haiku. The utility is in C and porting (and testing) the event framework had been a challenge due to our limited bandwidth and lack of hands-on experience with Haiku.

It gives me great pleasure to announce on the first day of the new year that nnn is ready for Haiku and a PR has been raised - https://github.com/haikuports/haikuports/pull/4499.

I was involved in testing the changes and fixing some bugs with Haiku on a VM. It’s indeed a nice lightweight distro. Gave me the clean and breezy feel of the initial Red Hat releases. I think nnn goes well with it.

Once merged, if you see any issues please report it on the project page and we will take care of it.

Have a great year and have fun with nnn!
