Subject:	Announce -- BWinSys

Hello all.

Well, I released a small addon to BGui (see my page
for more info on that paticular library) a few weeks
ago called BWinSys.  Now, I finally have realized
that I forgot to announce it :-)  So here it goes:

BWinSys is a library that allows you to have multiple
allegro dialogs open simulntaniously, each in it's own
window.  It contains window objects that look like
both the built in Allegro controls and the BGui windows
95 style controls.  Setting up a windowing system couldn't
be simpler:  You simply create a new dialog, for example
my_winsys, containing all of your windows.  You then
put a pointer to the dialog the window will contain in
it's dp (or dp2.. I forget.. Look at the example :-).  Then
call do_dialog(my_winsys, 0);.  It's that simple.  No
modifications to Allegro.  No modifications to BGui.
Very few Gotchas (small one with background window
drawing, but avoidable for the carefull programmer)..
Go check it out and let me know what you think!
It's on the accessable from the "C" section of my site,
which can be found on the main page linked to
in the footer.  Thanks in advance for the feedback
you will give me!
