Would this be a good script to add as an example script with the Win32::GUI
distribution?
I have a policy (open for discussion, of course) of not
distributing samples that require modules not distributed with
ActiveState Perl or Win32::GUI itself, as I think the samples we
distribute should run 'out of the box'.
This is, however, exactly the sort of sample that I'd like to see on the
Wiki - http://perl-win32-gui.sourceforge.net/wiki/
That seems like a nice dichotomy of example scripts: distribute samples
that work with no dependencies, and put on the website/wiki other
scripts that have dependencies. But such scripts with dependencies can
be very useful to show how to integrate modules, which, for
understandable reasons, is not generally done in test scripts either.
And if the collection of the Wiki grows suitably, then the scripts could
all be packaged up as a separate download.
