Hello,

Whenever I include gwen.h it gives me the above error. I think it's a
typo because "gwen_static.lib" is a close match, and I even renamed it
to "gwend_static.lib" and it worked.

On an unrelated note, some tutorials for setting Gwen up for OpenGL
would be much appreciated.

The gwen_static.lib and gwend_static.lib are different names for the
"Release" and "Debugging" version of the gwen library.
At least under some compiling settings mixing these can cause problems.

I personally compile Gwen directly into my application, and I define
the preprocessor symbol GWEN_COMPILE_STATIC in order to turn this
error off. (It is probably not meant to be used this way, but it
works).
