DESCRIPTION

    BGUI is a graphical user interface library for the Amiga computer which
    allows for easy, flexible and fast GUI creation. It is based on BOOPSI
    (Basic Object-Oriented Programming System for Intuition) and consists
    of a single shared library which is easy to install.

    - Programmers:

        * BGUI gives you the ability to easily create automatically font
          sensitive and resizable windows.  You won't use gadtools.library
          again!

        * BGUI handles input and notification; your application can almost
          run by itself.

        * BGUI has been used for many projects, and is well tested and
          developed. There are many other experienced programmers who can help
          you get started.

        * BGUI interfaces can adapt to user preferences, and localize
          themselves.

        * BGUI comes with enough object classes to get you going, and third
          parties have written classes as well.  Example source is included to
          show you how to write your own.

        * BGUI is free! No license or fees required for shareware or commercial
          usage.

    - Users:

        * BGUI interfaces are font sensitive, resizable, often localized, and
          can adjust to your preferences.

        * BGUI has far smaller memory and disk requirements than other GUI
          systems, while retaining the most important features.

        * Many BGUI applications include everything you need to get started,
          there is rarely a need to obtain yet another file.

        * BGUI is free!

    This archive contains the BGUI modules and examples on how to use BGUI
    with AmigaOberon.
