Greetings.

New to Windows. :-) Not really, but 100? of my programs have been using the console or the IE window. Now, I have been tasked with some projects where the users want windows. I thought that day would never come, but it has. :-) So, I need to read about windows and labels and forms, etc. Any suggestions?

thanks.

Ok, hacking it is, then... :-)

Hello, DFL doesn't have much for beginners, but I don't think it's that hard to dive into, and I made sure to provide many examples to get people started.

* Setup and usage instructions.
* Documentation - not very complete but lists the functions and classes and anyone can add to it.
* Tips
* Example code, especially the examples that come with the dfl.zip found at packages\dfl\examples
* dsource.org tutorials for DFL - fairly outdated.
* Entice Designer is a window/dialog designer / GUI builder.
* Tutorial for Entice Designer.

Sorry for the delay; hope this helps. Feel free to make suggestions and edit the DFL wiki. There is also a DFL to-do list.

Thanks. By the way, Entice is also a pretty good tool to learn. Clicking on the Properties, gives you a small description of what that property does. Very nice tool, my friend.
