Allegro framework & GUI

Having no other inspiration, I started to write a framework for allegro 5 with a GUI system.. ( simple and very lightweight).

and I was wondering maybe others will find it usefull...
So I'll put it up here.( maybe I'll make a project out of it)

it's not finished yet, but already usefull I think.

take a look and see CustomProgram(.h/.cpp) and customWindow(.h/.cpp) for an example how to use it.

take a look. ( see attachments)

The code as is needs a Font dir with an arial TTF font for the GUI ( you can change this easily) this is in the example.zip file together with a working exe

Perhaps one day we will find that the human factor is more complicated than space and time (Jean luc Picard)
Current project: [Star Trek Project ] Join if you want ;-)

Timeout bump.

Some feedback on the library - I think you're wasting your time trying to re-invent the wheel. If you're really interested in GUI programming, you should team up with an existing project and go from there. There's AGUI, EAGLE, and others you could contribute to instead of going through the troubling of building an entire library on your own. (Which I can assure you can be a decades long endeavor...)
