pip install pygame-pgu
NOTE PGU is in need of more contributors. Email me (peter.rogers@gmail.com) or jsobueno@gmail.com if you're interested in evolving the codebase.
I (jsbueno) am giving some care to this code basic, and likely making a Python-3 only release soon.
A collection of handy utilities and libraries created by Phil Hassey, released under the LGPL v2.1 (see LICENSE.txt for more details).
The current PGU code base:

see that site for more information about the font.PS. most things citing "TGA" file format will just work with PNG and other file formats out of the box: TGA used to be the sole 32bit image format supported directly by Pygame when the codebase was created. The codebase does no verification on the filetypes or requested filenames, just foward it to Pygame - which nowadays (2024) support a lot of other image types.
To build the PGU documentation, run the build.py script found under docs:
$ cd docs
$ python build.py
$ your-favorite-browser index.htmlTo understand pgu.gui -- read: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/ (pgu.gui is based heavily on my HTML background)
To understand the pgu.gui default theme -- read: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/box.html (the theme uses the css 2 box model)
Example scripts can be found in the examples directory.
