    Looking for a C project to read the source code

    The volume of content on SourceForge is overwhelming. It is cumbersome to sieve through the project listing of projects in any programming language to look for a project that is of your level of interest, your subject/topic/vertical domain of interest, and is for your particular platform, which in my case, is Win32. And to top that, if you're looking for projects in C, you also must look for a filter - ATL/MFC/C++/Only C/Console Apps/GUI Apps/Win32 API et al.

    To enhance my skills, I need to read an easy to understand project implemented in C for the Win32 platform. I need two actually:

    (1) Console based/CUI based
    (2) GUI based

    My purpose would be to read the code. Since I am already familiar with Windows UI programming, I would also be interested in projects that are not Win32 API based, meaning CUI based projects for the Win32 platform.

    How big of a project are you looking for?
    "Can't" and "shouldn't" are two totally separate things.

    All questions should be answered. All answers should be true. That is why I post.

    A project that starts from here, goes all the way uptil there and finally ends there.

    <jk/> ;-)

    I am looking for a beginner level project with a few windows (may be 5 to six windows) and about five or six source code files.

    Ok... Well here is an example of a console application written in C:

    If you know this, then you should be able to extend it to w/e.
