Re: [pygame] Gui

[David <dvkeeney@xxxxxxxxx>]

There are some GUIs that are implemented in Python/Pygame.

The simplest is Mike Leonhard's GUI, at http://tamale.net/chat/ . The
GUI is in the files 'widgets.py' and 'widgetdemo.py'.

Ocemp GUI is new, more extensive (and complex), and maintained by
Marcus von Appen, who I believe follows this list (pygame-users).

PyUI2 is a recent resuscitation of PyUI, and includes Pygame
renderers, for use within Pygame.
