I want to make an RTS game with Allegro, but I don't know how to integrate Allegro's GUI routines with my own code, so I want to implement a simple GUI system of my own. Is there anyone who can tell me some ideas about that? Or, is there anyone who can tell me how to integrate Allegro's GUI routines with my own code?(because the program "exgui.c" in "Available Allegro examples" doesn't show me how to do that)

I don't really know how complex your GUI should be, but you could use Guichan in your project.
Or if you just need something simpler you could simply use LSButton for an simple implementation of a button.

I personally think the Allegro GUI is plain ugly and should not be used in games.

I hope the links above help.
