    c program GUI

    Hello!

    I've design a little program that asks the user to introduce several values typing them in the console. To make it easyer I'm thinking in adding a graphical interface, but I don't know how to do it. Any clues? I don't want to loss lots of time programming I want something easy like when you add buttons in a form of Visual Basic.

    thank you!!!

    Visual Basic hides a lot of the actual work needed to add GUI functionality.

    You can probably use C# to do something similar, but if you insist on C or C++, then you have more that needs doing. In C++ you could perhaps use MFC or some other "windowing framework", so that YOU don't have to do much of the hard work. If you are strictly sticking to C, then I suggest you look at some Windows GUI packages that offer that functionality for you.
