Help the noob :) - Text and buttons

[Lolmewn]

Hi,
I just started developing with LWJGL, and it's going quite ok.
I was just wondering how I could add Text, since slick-util forgot to add the replacement for TrueTypeFont (UnicodeFont I thought).
And how to add buttons

Thanks!

nvm. Using Slick + LWJGL now
Still don't know about the buttons though..

For buttons, you can either use an established LWJGL-GUI API (TWL, Nifty, etc), or you could program simple buttons yourself (detect if mouse is hovering over the button, detect mouse clicks, and change the state of the button accordingly).

Do you know if Slick has buttons?

Take a look at their GUI example. And if not just extend their gui elements
