Newbie gfx library...?
Author
Hey, I''m still learning C++, but I have the basics down. I don''t program Windows, and I was wondering; does anyone know of a simple graphics library so that I can maybe draw some simple 2D shapes and move them around? I''d really appreciate if someone could point the way... thanx =o)

...I''ve heard of Allegro, but doesn''t it only work w/DJGPP? I use mingw, and I''m not that willing to convert =o(
Does anyone know if it''ll work with mingw?
Otherwhise I''d use it...
Thanx for the suggestion, tho! =o)

Yes.
The newest WIP''s of Allegro work with MiniGW, as well as a bunch of other compilers.

Siasoft -when you say "no," does that mean that you''re saying that Martee is wrong? I don''t use MSVC++, but I might be buying a copy soon, but just in case I don''t, I want to know.
Thanx =o)

No, I am not wrong...especially since I am currently using MiniGW and Allegro for my game.
From the Allegro docs...
=============================================
============ Supported platforms ============
=============================================
DOS/djgpp - see readme.dj
DOS/Watcom - see readme.wat
Windows/MSVC - see readme.vc
Windows/Mingw32 - see readme.mgw
Windows/RSXNT - see readme.rsx
Windows/Borland - see readme.bcc
Linux (console) - see readme.lnx
Unix (X) - see readme.uni
BeOS - see readme.be
In other words, YES, it does work

Thank you so much! I''ll see if I can use it... =o)
However, if anyone knows of any other easy2use gfx libraries, I''m still listening!

Also, you said that the newest WIP works with MingW?
Is there anything else I have to download, like special files to put in my compiler''s directory?
I''ll go ahead and d/l it anyways, but I just thought I''d ask, just in case =o)
