RE: [pygame] How to add text boxes and buttons

["Ben Olsen" <bolsen@xxxxxxxxx>]

Marcus includes a large selection of examples to look at in the "doc"
directory. But the basic idea is:

1) Create a Renderer
2) Set up whatever widgets you need in the various game classes you've
written
3) Add the widgets to the Renderer

Personally I like to have all my game classes inherit from
ocempgui.object.BaseObject, so that I can easily control which signals
(the Renderer version of Events) get picked up by which objects. The
guiclient.py in the "chat" examples is a good place to see how to do
that.
