# deprecated

The arwen gui library is windows 32-bit only, and hence it is recommended that any new programs use pGUI, which is 32/64 bit and Windows/Linux compatible. It is however still supported and may be appropriate for quick one-offs.
There are no plans to remove, drop support, or deliberately break anything in this section, however there will be few if any further enhancements to them.
None of these routines are supported by pwa/p2js, except perhaps for bigatom, although the main/only advantage of that over mpfr is that no dlls are required, which is not applicable under p2js anyway, though it is exercised in several rosettacode entries (Catalan_numbers[_Pascals_triangle], fibonnaci, and Miller_Rabin_primality_test).
Arwen - a fast, compact GUI library for Windows-based applications (32-bit only).
arwen32dib - fast bitmap manipulation (24-bit graphics).
bigatom - arbitrary precision arithmetic.
console graphics - from/compatible with Euphoria’s DOS beginnings.
database - simple database system (copied from Euphoria).
message_box - windows only, so (eg) gMsgBox() would be better.
nopoll - incomplete (was at one point considered as a possible alternative to libcurl).
read_bitmap - does not and never did support 24 or 32 bit colours.
