Hello,

I have made an archive that includes everything one needs to quickly get started with SDL programming with DMC. You can find it at http://wiki.mos6581.org/DigitalMars

I'd like to see more of these for other libraries.

It would be nice to be able to contain in a developer package archive a standard directory structure. This has the advantage that the user simple has to copy the whole directory into his dm directory.

I've been using MinGW for a long time, so I don't really know how "it's done" in the Windows world. I have my dm directory set up as follows:

dm\
  bin\
  images\
  include\
  lib\
  local\
    include\
    lib\
  stlport\

I don't change the contents of the standard dm directories (for keeping everything neat). I have added local\include and local\lib to the INCLUDE and LIB variables in my sc.ini.

So I would suggest a standard directory structure for developer packs comme ça:

dm\
  local\
    include\
    lib\

Do you think this is a good idea?

Regards,
Brecht

Thanks, I was looking exactly for that!

I like the fact that DMC is so lean and mean, but the lack of third party libraries is a serious issue. A DMC "devpacks" (like Dev C++ devpacks) site would be nice!
