On approximately 11/13/2003 9:27 AM, came the following characters from
the keyboard of Jeremy White:
4) There needs to be some coordination with Aldo, perhaps, and he
hasn't responded publicly or privately to any of the email I've sent
him regarding bugs over the last couple years. Or is the community
ready to proceed without Aldo?
Did you or anyone get a reply from Aldo about the latest round of
emails?
Not me. I can't speak for "anyone" of course.
Perhaps we should try and move forward somehow. I've just looked
through the mailing list and there are several other bug fixes that
should be applied to any new build.
In the short term,
1) I'd be glad to contribute my fixes to anyone that cares, that would
be willing to CVS-ize them, and make them generally available.
2) I'd be willing to make available my binary distribution to anyone
that wants my fixes (I've called it 0.0.668, since there were 3 fixes
applied to 0.0.665), but I'm working on 0.0.669, adding more keys to the
legal set of accelerator keys... all keys are legal accelerator keys to
Windows, and only a subset were implemented in Win32::GUI.
3) I'd be willing to incorporate patches into my version, if someone
identifies them, and sends me the patches, they aren't too cumbersome to
apply, and make the merged binary distribution available.
Then there is the documentation
project headed up by Erick Bourgeois
(http://jeb.ca/perl/win32-gui-docs/index.pl/home). We just need to get
some momentum going...
Accelerator keys could use more documentation now that I have them working.
Any ideas/thoughts/suggestions?
I'm sure everyone has their own hot buttons. I've mostly fixed my known
ones, but as I proceed with my current project, I may run into other
limitations or bugs.
Probably it would be good to produce an error if the -name operand is
omitted. And update the documentation to mention that it is required.
What is the difference between Aldo, and Waldo ??? Where's Waldo?
Cheers,
jez.
