Just wondering what Open Source libraries in the graphics/multimedia/audio 
areas anyone's had any luck getting to build and work with on FreeDOS?

I read programs with SDL library work in some cases with HX Extender.  Am 
assuming SDL doesn't build on its own in djgpp or a similar C/C++ compiler for 
DOS.  PDcurses works.  Djgpp looks like it has an ncurses port (or maybe it's 
just using PDCurses in some form).  Read something about WxUniversal (a port of 
WxWindows using MGL).  Anyone been able to get it working or even find the 
sources for the proper version of MGL anymore?  Saw something about Nano-X too, 
but it needs the MGL library as well.  Also saw mention of miniGLX, GGI, 
DirectFB but no information on whether there are DOS ports.  Anyone had any 
luck using one of these libraries or something like them?  Any other 
cross-platform GUI or screen libraries that have a DOS port out there?

Is there a good C/C++ audio library to use with programs?  Was wondering if the 
code from the DOS version of Timidity could be plugged into the latest version 
or maybe someone knows of a better source for a sound API?

Thanks.

Sincerely,
Laura
