[Iup-users] XP styling via available DLL's?

Scuri,

I am one of the developers of Euphoria and with 4.0 we will be releasing 
two versions for Windows, one for 95/98/ME and another for XP/Vista. So, 
for 4.0 and up, Iup will automatically use the correct styling. We have 
to do this for many other reasons, so changing the resource file was not 
a problem.

I personally wrote wrappers around Iup for Euphoria. It is not part of 
the official Euphoria but an add-on. All of Iup is wrapped, most of CD, 
nothing of the other libs that are commonly distributed w/Iup. Once 4.0 
is released (we are nearing alpha status), I'll release Iup for Euphoria 
as well (as it makes use of many of the new features in 4.0 of 
Euphoria). I'll let you know when that happens.
