c++ programs

can anyone point me to some opensource c++ written programs that are nicely fleshed out and maybe even have a gui, i.e-games, or anything else really...its way above my level but i just want to see how all of that looks like and maybe see if i can edit parts of it to mess around in. reason im asking is because i can only find console applications when i try to search for this.
Here's something I made a while back:

http://www.romhacking.net/utils/497/ (source is included in the download)

Not the best written code around, but:

- it's relatively small
- it has a GUI
- it's open source

If you want to make sense out of the de/compression stuff, you can use this doc as a reference:

http://www.romhacking.net/docs/379/

And of course to test the program out you'll need a copy of the ROM for the NES version of Lode Runner. (google it: "Lode Runner (U).nes")
O.o thanks Disch, ive actually always wondered about what goes behind the scenes when programs interact with other programs....


EDIT: ARGH! i just got addicted to lode runner.... never even heard of it but its remarkably mario influenced huh? or is it the other way around

yeah me too when i was a kid.. i play it on NES
hmmm yah well i dunno if thats informative but it is interesting to know that full fledged programs arent just one main.cpp file its a whole collection...i think im a little more confused... but thanks alot though
try this, though it's not GUI

EDIT: if you really want GUI applications, there are some examples with tutorials here http://www.functionx.com/visualc/ and here http://www.functionx.com/win32/
