GWEN: GUI without Extravagant Nonsense

A cross-platform C++ GUI framework tested to work on both Linux (Ubuntu variants) and Windows. Designed to just work and need as few dependencies as reasonable. Originally created by Garry Newman.

Supports multiple renderer backends, but OpenGL is by far best supported.

Required Dependencies

Windows: freeimage (already included)
Linux: libxcursor-dev mesa-common-dev libgui1-mesa-dev libfreeimage-dev libglewmx-dev
