I just noticed there's another file, B+ vs GUI.txt, which is a nice write-up and should be helpful. I think the main issue with all these GUI toolkits, inform included, is that they don't really fit any kind of niche to be reused by the community at large. If I wanted GUI elements in my QB64 mods I'd probably prefer to roll my own in true BASIC spirit and it would likely end up being simpler than adapting a more fully-featured library. ie just hard-code a couple of buttons and sliders and be done with it. If I wanted something truly fully featured industry-standard GUI in the realm of GTK or windows API or similar then I'd look well away from QB64 as the base language.
