Imhotep (sometimes spelled Immutef, Im-hotep, or Ii-em-Hotep, Egyptian ) (2667 BC - 2648 BC) is the first architect and physician known by name in written history. As one of the officials of the Pharaoh Djosèr he designed the Pyramid of Djzosèr (Step Pyramid) at Saqqara in Egypt around 2630-2611 BC, during the 3rd Dynasty. He may also have been responsible for the first known use of columns in architecture.
Imhotep is a video game for the Commodore 64 released by Ultimate Play The Game in 1985. Although published by Ultimate, it was developed by an independent programmer, Manuel Caballero. Unlike earlier arcade adventure titles such as The Staff of Karnath or Entombed it is a straightforward shooter game, with an Ancient Egypt theme.
Imhotep was meant to be a dialog agent for Ägypten. It can run dialogs on a variety of platforms (e.g. terminal or X). The dialogs are described by Qt Designer XML files. The Imhotep concept has been postponed and will not be implemented within the Ägypten project. It has turned out to be more practicable to implement most dialogs right inside the mail-software. All dialogs around the PIN entry are covered by the special module 'pinentry'. General terms
