Hi, First, I'd like to say thank you to Minimo's devteam! A project like Minimo has been awaiting for long time. Doug Turner napisał(a): > [...] > For the minimo application, we have two "front ends".

I have one such in mind. It is called Windows Template Library wich is published on Common Public License (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wtl/). It provides ATL-based templatized framework wrapping Win32 API to build robust and small binaries. It is a very very thin layer just above the API. I use it programming applications for desktop Windows OSs and for Window CE based OSs like Pocket PC, Smartphone etc. What do you think?
