Why is it so hard to make modifications to AGI Studio? This isn't Nailhead's, Nat Budin's or Peter Kelly's fault, just some nitpicking....
I can't edit agi studio because I've only got Delphi 6 Personal edition.. Nailhead's source uses some professional compoents but the personal edition doesn't support some of the components that the professional edition has (like gradients apparently).. even the tutorial that comes with the personal edition requires components that I just can't access..
how big is the Personal Edition download? 140 megs... Why would you release a tutorial that doesn't work with the program?
grrr.. Nick smash...
ok, before I tried Delphi, I tried the Windows Linux AGI Studio (Qt AGI Studio)... QT is meant to be open source, cross platform, lah de dah.. but you can't code with QT under Windows unless you have Visual C (which i don't have)... there's a hack to use Cygwin but as I understand it, you need to have the xfree code as well as a cygwin library...
The only alternative is to use Peter Kelly's original source, but I haven't tried that yet.. That means I can't use Nailhead's updates however.
Does anybody have any solutions? I want to work on AGI Studio, either to help Nailhead or add new features. What's a decent cross-platform gui library? I want to be able to easily port some gui frontends from windows to linux, so I don't really want to code in win32.
