Hi..

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.
