MUI Classes Index¶

All 65 BOOPSI custom classes shipped with MUI 3.8 dev. Each class has its own page under library-reference/mui-classes/<class>.mui.md listing its attributes (MUIA_Class_Attribute) and methods (MUIM_Class_Method). The engine that drives all of them is muimaster.library; the C-level convenience macros live in libraries/mui.h; and the public types are indexed at types-mui.
