This isn''t related to game programming, but I am in need of a library for windows guis. Nothin fancy needed, im just too lazy to try to learn Win32 Controls and stuff, and Im not gonna use ****ing MFC. I tried just using a dialog box with some other stuff, but my lack of knowledge is really killin me now. ------------------- The Reindeer Effect Insomniac Software

Try WTL (Windows Template Library). It's almost functionally equivalent to MFC and is much nicer.

Edit: thinking about it, since WTL has about zero documentation, it probably won't suit you. You have to know something to write GUIs anyway.

What are you looking for in a library? And why not MFC? If anything, you can find loads of docs and samples for MFC.
