With the addition of a few lines C programs that use Allegro's gui can have better looking objects with 3d effects and multiple gui colors. If you are using C++ you can extend the basic dialog_object with class derivation which is simpler and cleaner than the mixing of procedures that was necessary using standard Allegro d_xxx_proc procedures. Also the user can easily and simply interface with object callback functions to find out when a button is clicked, a checkbox is selected, etc. A gui builder program is provided that can be used to graphically build dialogs and export the dialogs to program code. DEGUI objects can also be easily interfaced with DIALOG structures for mixed C/C++ style dialogs and pure C programs can us the new look of the DEGUI objects with minimal changes in their code. DEGUI also has an INIfile class for support for windows-like INI files. Any questions? D DOT J DOT Eleveld AT anest DOT azg DOT nl deleveld AT dds DOT nl
