Do you think perhaps it would be good to make a direct clone of the
DirectX API, to make porting easier?  Or would it be better to make a
new API?

Also, you seem to be lacking a general event-handler library, which I
think would be useful to pull together the other libraries (ie,
network events, mouse/keyboard events, timer events, etc., with a
common event interface).  I would think this would be easiest to
implement using threads.

Lastly, I wouldn't bother working on specific serial-port support,
since users can just setup SLIP or whatever, and treat it as a normal
TCP/IP connection.  (if you want, maybe you can write some simple
scripts to call dip or whatever though).

In any case, I'd love to contribute to this project.  I'm a strong C
coder with mediocre graphic skills, but I can learn fast :>
