Hi,

I am in the process of writing a couple of C function libraries.  One
of them will be an interface library with windows, menus, data entry,
and list selection.  The other will be a general function library with
bit manipulation, functions for controlling print.com, etc...

The reason I am posting is that I am wondering what sort of things
people like... what type of menus are you likely to use?  how do you
prefer to do data entry?  What other user interface functions would be
useful?  For the general library, what would be useful?  I thought of
having functions similar to the fgetc function which would read in
other things beside characters from a file.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Please reply by email to

Thank you in advance,
