-The '''MLlib''' (or Minishlink's Library) is a simple library to develop on Nintendo Wii. Technically, it's a wrapper of libogc and others librairies. Coding with this lib on Wii is way easier and faster now ! :-) I created this because I needed a library with I could code with easy functions. It uses [[GX]] for drawing, [[libpng]] for handling PNG, and libs of [[libogc]]...
-==Features==
-* Proper code so that it's nice to see;
-* Easy for all;
-* Friendly functions;
-* Handles drawing (lol);
-* Sprite system;
-* Handles PNG images;
-* Special effects;
-* Write graphically text;
-* MP3 system;
-* MOD system;
-* Input (Wiimote, Nunchuk, and extensions...) system;
-* And much more...
-==How to install ?==
-===On Windows===
-First you need to have '''devKitPro''' installed. Go [[Devkitppc setup (Windows)|install]] it ! ;)
-Then, '''libpng''' for Wii must be installed.
-# Download it at [http://louislagrange.free.fr/MLlib/downloads/libpng_wii.zip my FTP].
-# Extract it and place the .a in "devkitpro\libogc\lib\wii" and the folder "png" in "devkitpro\libogc\include".
-# It's done !
-Now the '''MLlib'''.
-# Download the MLlib on the [http://code.google.com/p/mllib/downloads/list Google Code MLlib page]
-# Extract the archive and place the folder (recommended in C:\devkitPro)
-# Examples, documentation and more are in the "MLlib_Others_XXXXXX.zip" package.
-# Set the environment variable "MLPATH" to your path to the MLlib. (eg. "/c/devkitPro/MLlib" because it must be linux-style) To do that, open the Start menu, right-click on Computer -> Properties, then go to the advanced settings -> environments variables. Set it there. It's recommended to restart the computer.
-# It should be done ! Go explore examples ! :D (test if it works via an example)
-===On Linux===
-First you need to have '''devKitPro''' installed. Go [[Devkitppc setup (Linux)|install]] it ! ;)
-Then, '''libpng''' for Wii must be installed.
-# Download it at [http://louislagrange.free.fr/MLlib/downloads/libpng_wii.zip my FTP].
-# Extract it and place the .a in "devkitpro/libogc/lib/wii" and the folder "png" in "devkitpro/libogc/include".
-# It's done !
-Now the '''MLlib'''.
-# Download the MLlib on the [http://code.google.com/p/mllib/downloads/list Google Code MLlib page]
-# Extract the archive and place the folder where you want (recommended in /home/user/devkitpro)
-# Examples, documentation and more are in the "MLlib_Others_XXXXXX.zip" package.
-# Set the environment variable "MLPATH" to your path to the MLlib. (eg. "/home/username/devkitpro/MLlib") To do that, open and type in a new console:
- export MLPATH=/path/to/MLlib
-It should be done ! Go explore examples ! :D
-(test if it works via an example)
-===On Mac OS X===
-You should be able to do it if you read Windows/Linux instructions.
-Updated tutorial will coming soon though, with Mac OS X ;)
-==Notes==
-===Quickstart===
-For a quickstart, see the section [[#How_to_install_.3F|How to install ?]] and go see the examples in the "MLlib_Others_XXXXXX.zip" package ! ;)
-===Tutorials and Wiki===
-Some tutorials and more info are available at the [http://louislagrange.free.fr/MLlib/wiki MLlib Wiki].
-===Documentation===
-Online documentation is available [http://louislagrange.free.fr/MLlib/documentation here]. Or in the "MLlib_Others_XXXXXX.zip" package.
-==="MLlib_Others_XXXXXX.zip" package===
-It can be downloaded on [http://code.google.com/p/mllib/downloads/list Google Code] !
-===Error when compiling the template/examples ?===
-To test correctly the examples and the template, make sure you have done a "make clean" before, because it will give you the error
- make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/home/minishlink/devkitpro/MLlib_Others/template/source/main.c', needed by `main.o'. Stop.
-if you don't do this ! :p
-===Makefile & Commands===
-====Editing Makefile====
-In order to use the MOD part of the MLlib, you need to uncomment the line "USE_MOD" at the top of the Makefile. It's the same thing when you need to compile code that uses MP3 or FAT.
-====Make====
-Compiles the project.
-====Make clean====
-Cleans the project, it destroys dependancies too.
-====Make run====
-It sends the app/game previously compiled to the Wii via the wiiload program. It's quiet useful because you don't need to type "wiiload projectXYZ.dol", "make run" is faster !
-You have to put the original [[Wiiload]] program (eg. the command-line program, which is provided with Twilight Hack or HBC) in the system folder of your OS. Example : "C:\Windows\System32" for Windows ; "/usr/bin" for Linux ; "??? #FixIt" for MaxOSX.
-Wiiload program can be downloaded [http://louislagrange.free.fr/downloads/wiiload.tar.gz here] or in the [[Hackmii Installer]] (beta 3 or newer).
-====Make all====
-It cleans the project, then compiles and then sends to the Wii.
-==Bugs & Suggestions==
-If you have any bugs or suggestions, feel free to report them on [http://code.google.com/p/mllib/issues/list Google Code].

-* added : ML_DrawRect(int x, int y, u16 width, u16 height, u32 rgba)
-* added : ML_Debug(text)
-* added : ML_CloneImage(image1, image2)
-* added : ML_DrawSpriteTextLimit(sprite, x, y, text, limit)
