Does anyone have any suggestions for a good cross platform input library? I'd like to get:

* at least keyboard and mouse input
* on at least the big three operating systems
* Small/fast
* C or C++
* permissive licensing gpl2/mit/free/etc.

So far I've seen:

* OIS (used in Ogre) http://sourceforge.net/projects/wgois/
* SDL (used everywhere it seems, might be a clue) http://www.libsdl.org/index.php
* Allegro http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro/readme.html

Has any one used any of these, or know of something else that might be good?

Thanks

SDL it is quite popular in game development (at least small games)

I've used SDL for long time, but it still doesn't support multiple windows.

So, beyond those you cited, I add these 2:

Both of those look like excellent candidates :)
