Yeah, probably biting off more than he can chew, but you gotta start somewhere, right? ;-) > What programming experience and what experience in DOS do you have to > begin with? If he looking to create a shell / menu program with icons? Or just a GUI frontend lib for widget-y stuff? Checking the sources to Allegro library (DJGPP, 386+) would show a lot of VGA / SVGA / VESA stuff for most of that. http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/devel/libs/allegro/ Obviously's Georg's FLTK stuff would also be a good place to look: http://code.google.com/p/nanox-microwindows-nxlib-fltk-for-dos/ Or just check the VESA specs: http://ftp.lanet.lv/ftp/mirror/x2ftp/msdos/programming/specs/vesasp12.zip http://ftp.lanet.lv/ftp/mirror/x2ftp/msdos/programming/specs/vbe20.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Next-Gen Firewall Hardware Offer Buy your Sophos next-gen firewall before the end March 2013 and get the hardware for free!
