Pietro Gagliardi cc7675ab5a More font dialog work: split out all the combobox manipulation functions into their own function, made the current selection part of the structure, made the font families item data to the family combobox, and changed the font face string function to use the dedicated font face string method (thanks Windows 7 ChooseFont sample program). 2016-04-17 01:34:05 -04:00
_wip More NSTextView work. 2015-12-08 21:09:23 -05:00

README.md

libui: a portable GUI library for C

This README is being written.
Build Status

Runtime Requirements

  • Windows: Windows Vista SP2 with Platform Update or newer
  • Unix: GTK+ 3.4 or newer
  • Mac OS X: OS X 10.7 or newer

Build Requirements

  • All platforms:
    • GNU make 3.81 or newer (Xcode comes with this; on Windows you will need to get it yourself)
  • Windows: Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 or newer
    • This may be reduced to 2010 if necessary.
    • MinGW is currently unsupported. MinGW-w64 support will be re-added once the following features come in:
      • Isolation awareness
      • Linker symbols for some functions such as TaskDialog() (which I thought I submitted...)
  • Unix: nothing specific
  • Mac OS X: nothing specific, so long as you can build Cocoa programs

(TODO write some notes on make variables and cross-compiling)

Documentation

Needs to be written. Consult ui.h and the examples for details for now.
