1. GUI programs

Hi all,

I am looking to create a simple editor as way of learning euphoria...
I have also been looking at Dave's Win32Lib, and the VEL005.

I want to be able to have multiple windows open at once..such as text1.txt,
file.diz, and others with simple cut and paste, open and save options. Also
printing would be good.

What do you think I should start with Win32Lib or VEL005?

I've written an emulated text edit control, used in the Win32Lib IDE. Take a
look at IDE_EDIT.EW; it's essentially a stand-alone editor. I haven't added
cut or paste options.

The GENERIC.EXW is a simple editor that uses the Win32 MLE control, which is
limited to 32K. However, it does implement many other features: cut, paste,
open, save and printing.

Hi Jeremy,

VEL has the RICHEDITOR control which has no 32K limit, plus it has it's own
built-in Print property. The VEL library also provides for Cut, Copy, and
Paste functions for ALL of it's edit controls, including Edit, Memo, and,
of course, Richeditor.

I hope this helps... Gary Dumer.

Hello Jeremy,
      I think you should start with VEL, it have richeditor routines.
      Of course, I think this, I don't know if this is right, but I
      believe that Win32Lib is more powerfull, but it's for
      complicated programs, not for a simple editor. If you are a
      novice and you wanna make a program easily, with a nice GUI, I
      think you should try using VEL.
