You know what sucks?

Spending the past 7 hours trying to develop a simple interface such that I can actually receive typed input into my Graphics package. I am starting to hate C (the language). I have something that is working, but creating a User Interface is by far the most excruciating part of this package. Not because I don’t like designing interfaces, but because I have to draw everything out by hand. Yes I’m sure their are some widget libraries for SDL, but a lot of them are for C++. And in any case, whenever I try to install a new package or component into my program, I usually encounter more issues than it is worth. I should head to sleep soon.
