Thanks srod. Yes there are some links on the download page to precompiled binaries:
http://cairographics.org/download/
I wish i had some more free time and i'd knock up a demo but there is a fairly good description of the API on their site and some good examples too.

Excellent, I'll have a good look at that. Thanks.

MrMat: Cairo? Could you give us an example of using Cairo with PureBasic? - it looks really good.

I'm currently re-writing ReportBuilder, the new version is Elementary Reports, here is a screenshot:

I've (so far) increased speed and functionality, but decreased code size by half!

Currently I'm trying to get rid of a couple of icons by making the program a bit "cleverer"...

That is a nice interface

I'm a bit pressed for time at the moment but i might be able to post a simple Cairo demo over the weekend if no-one else beats me to it (and if anyone is thinking of beating me to it, please do

).

@MrMat : do you happen to have an include file for Cairo with some of the structures and constants defined by any chance?

Thanks.

Okay people... what are you working on in PB right NOW?

Several things at the same time, but 'right NOW' I'm working on a programming system that uses vbscript and html, and today's
(and for the time beeing..) excercise is to replace the ms open/save filerequesters with something more efficient.

And to get rid of the old menu up there, if I can.

Well I finished the POS Cash Register program (freeware) and I started in to the $$$ version which has DB access and inventory control. Then I got a consulting job to modify the POS for a restaurant. I would still own the product... so I thought OK... all is going well. I should have ALOHA beat by MARCH 2008!

maybe!

And only because of the help from everyone here at PB!!!

oh and I am waiting to see this:

Shannara -- 01. Recoding a VB game engine to PB. (incl. map editor).

My time editor for my old job looked like this:

Some absolute genius here did the clock!!!

And it still does. When I buy Armadillo I plan on rleasing it!

I am working on an Energy Calculator.
To show how much Electricity, Gas and Water a home is using.
I am using graphs for the visuals and calculations for how much greenhouse in tonnes is being output.
It mostly works, but I need to find out how to calculate how much greenhouse water pumped to the average home uses.

Nice interface DoubleDutch.

Is that what it looks like on the Mac?
