Short: GUI creation library (small & fast) Author: P-O Yliniemi / Staffan Hämälä Uploader: peoyli@pluggnet.se (P-O Yliniemi) Version: 37.0 Type: util/libs This is the user distribution of GadUtil library. If you are interested in developing programs that uses this library, you should get the distribution from dev/gui on Aminet. For advanced "normal" users: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Two versions of the library are included: one "normal" every-day-use version and one "debug" version. If you experience any trouble running a program that uses gadutil, you should rename the normal version in libs:, copy the debug version to libs, and rename it to gadutil.library. Reverse this to change back to the normal version. Don't forget to "flush" all unused libraries or reboot before testing the program again. Changes overview: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * 37.0 (29-Apr-96) A new function that checks the library's revision added. Two new tags added: GU_FractWidth and GU_FractHeight. Suggested by Morten Amundsen. Some small bug fixes in 'C' include files (unterminated comments). Cleaned up BetterTest.c a bit (removed some {}). Bug fix on the last line of the example (GT_ReplyIMsg -> GU_ReplyIMsg).
