Just a note, there's actualy two great AGA-supporting extensions in beta-
state right now. The new GUI, and the new OS DevKit. For those complaining
about the OS DevKit being hard to use (like myselve) it's now including
some very easy-to-use screens, windows and gadgets commands, one of the
best features is that it's capable of fully supporting datatypes and
locales in your programs (localisation is almost imposible with GUI as far
as I know for now).. I can inform you that I'm currently beta-testing the
OS DevKit 1.54 and from what I've been told about GUI I'd prefer OS anytime
as it gives so much else that the GUI don't have. The lib file of OS is
currently about 92 Kb in size and are almost bigger than the mainlib of
AMOS Pro 2.0 :)..
I hope noone takes this too serious but I'm a bit pissed by always hearing
that the GUI is the best solution for intuition and it's the only serious
looking extension for AGA users.. WRONG, GUI might still be the easist to
use, but OS gives much better control for whatever you plan to make, and
it dosn't matter if you want intuition or AGA screens, this will be my
no. 1 choice from now on... And by the way, there's a little program that
can convert a GUI build with GAD-tools-box to a pice of OS-source :))
