Hi,

If I grab some Padre time later on today, would removing the reliance on 
Win32::API appeal?

You only have a few API functions that get called, so wrapping these in 
an XS module would mean 64 bit Padre on Windows with the next release. I 
don't see much need for expanded Win32::API usage in the future, and 
even if there is once the basic XS module is in place, it will be much 
easier to wrap additional functions.

The right thing to do would be help with the Win32::API for 64 bit 
windows effort - but I lack any assembler skills and I can't get the 
current version from github to work with VC7 64bit or the version of 
mingw-w64 I use. I can get it to compile - but I just get access 
violations on usage.

I have an itch that on Citrus Perl, you can do 'cpan -i Padre' as your 
first post install action everywhere except 64 bit windows.

Anyone want to keep Win32::API ?


Mark
