Hi,

I am basically writing to myself but I thought this might interest others
as well on this list. There are a few questions as well.

I checked the versions of my wxWidgtes and Scintilla:

The latest version of Alien::wxWidgtes 0.40 released on oct 15, 2008
is using wxWidgets 2.8.8
( if I am correct that this is the indicating file:
  http://search.cpan.org/src/MBARBON/Alien-wxWidgets-0.40/patches/data )
which in turn uses Scintilla 1.70 based on this file
contrib/src/stc/scintilla/README.txt in the wxWidgets 2.8.8 source code.

According to http://www.wxwidgets.org/ the latest wxWidgets version is 2.8.9,
released on sept 22, 2008.
I guess Mattia will upgrade as his time permits, right?


Anyway, after downloading it I found - based on file
contrib/src/stc/scintilla/README.txt
that it also uses version 1.70 of Scintilla.

According to http://www.scintilla.org/ the latest version is 1.77,
released on Oct 18, 2008
while 1.70 was released 20 June 2006, more than 2 years ago.

I guess in order to get a newer version of Scintilla someone first has
to integrate it
into wxWidgtes and once it is released someone has to integrate it into wxPerl.

Am I right in the above or is some of the above incorrect?

Gabor
