Just finished a short demo describing some of the basic features of my API.
The api isn't available yet.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwE1zbJ8WyY Very early demonstration of my easy-to-use GUI system for ComputerCraft. The idea behind the project is making "graphical" CC applications simpler to implement.
In case it isn't clear, it demonstrates:
* Labels sporting different colors (foreground and background) as well as transparency
* Buttons
* Textboxes and masking/"password boxes" (they also support cursors and limited-length input, this is not in the demo)
* Windows
And a "real world" example (albeit a fairly simple one): Redstone Control. It features a login box (the purely graphical aspects of it come down to about 10 lines of client code :)/> ) and uses buttons to control the computer's redstone outputs.
There's a lot going on under the hood, but it's probably not all that interesting to most people. I might include some sample programs using rGUI later on. :)/>
Happy coding!

This looks very nice. When are you going to release the API?

Whenever it's finished, really. The amount of time I'm able to spend on it varies wildly from day to day, it's very easy to underestimate how long a given item on the "to do" list will take, etc.
NeverCast: thanks :P/>
