ok, last posting on this list - a few people exhibited interest in
helping out and setting me straight. i just wanted to make a final
call for any more.
i've got the general architecture migrated to perl. the class/
namespace stuff is a complete mess as its from python which has a
very different approach, and as a result i'm also passing around
variables/settings rather clumsily. its really all just a complete
mess internally right now , but it shows the general idea as a proof
of concept.
right now the 'Img' rendering just does text on osx with some lines.
an 'img' is basically just a stack of filters/classes on background
(i got the idea from the imaging section of a python captcha i
modeled my python captcha on) i haven't had time to learn much of
Imager and will likely need to write a filter to handle warping or
other tasks. the captcha creation/validation is currently within the
main bit of the module, but i'd like to bust it out into a pluggable
subclass so it can be user specified.
in any event, the functional mess i hacked up in some spare time is
here:
there is internal pod on Captcha.pm describing most things
view via trac:
http://dev.2xlp.com/trac/browser/mod_perl/PerlCaptcha/trunk
or svn access
$ svn co http://dev.2xlp.com/svn/mod_perl/PerlCaptcha/trunk
i'll move all further discussion offlist now
