hello perl-win32-gui-users,

version 0.0.558 is out!
this is primarily a bugfix version, and also
please note that I'm not sure how stable it is
(read on for more details).

bugs fixed:
- the infamous memory leak problem is now gone
  (everybody say: thank you Sam!!! :-)
- fixed the -filter option to Get(Open|Save)FileName
  (again, thank you Sam :-)
- the warnings from Win32::GUI::Dialog are now gone

new features:
- colors can now be given in the HTML notation too
  (eg. "#E3E2CC")
- the module is generally a lot faster

and now the bad news :-)
I've rearranged most of the module internals so that
it uses more C and less Perl to do its job (hence the
speed increase). I'm not sure now that everything
works correctly yet (pride.pl in the samples directory
seems to freeze, but I haven't noticed any other
disturbs). please make all the tests that you can,
and report anything that used to work and doesn't
anymore, so that I know where to look :-)

BTW, the module is available on:
- SourceForge
- dada's perl lab (http://www.dada.it)
- CPAN
hey, releasing this beast it's becoming a lot of
work :-)

cheers,
Aldo
