As much as I like the old Atari GEM style GUI that comes with Allegro, (I happen to own an Atari STe ;-), I am curious as to weather or not anyone would be interested in a WIN-95 look-alike replacement for it. I've rewritten the drawing routines on several of the d_xxxxxx_proc's that come with Allegro to look like Windoze, and wonder if it is worth my time to do the rest of them.. I am also considering adding an HSCROLL/VSCROLL object if anyone is interested. By the way, I should add that while they do not flicker, they are generally slower to draw than the ones that come with allegro, as their appearance is slightly more complex. They take 5-25 FPS off of my 3-D tunnel program, depending upon the speed of the computer. It gets about 90 FPS w/ them on, 105 - 110 W/O on my P-166. -- Dan Huizenga
