Re: libui: a portable GUI library for C

For Euphoria there are now three IUP wrappers:
- euIUP (original no longer developed but still works)
- iup4eu ( complete and working )
- EuIup (recent, compact version and working )
You can also add Phix which has an Iup wrapper.
The documentation that comes with IUP applies to all of the wrappers.
Therefore, IUP with Euphoria is working and usable.
To make IUP better some improved documentation would be needed. For this I am sorry, but I am still working on this.
I believe that IUP with Euphoria has a strong place as a multi-platform gui. A multi-platform gui is the most convenient as a starting point when presenting Euphoria to new programmers.
But, is a multi-platform gui the answer to what users actually want? I am beginning to suspect that a native gui for each operating system is what users really want because there are no extra libraries that must be installed.
Now libui makes things more interesting. A clean, fresh, and portable gui could be the better solution.
