Good morning all, I use WxPerl and intend to keep using it for a long time to come. However, I am only a beginner with WxPerl. Most of my GUI programming experience comes from PerlTk.
One of the things I¹ve always missed about WxPerl is a good introductory book. PerlTk has the O¹reilly ³Learning Perl/Tk² book by Nancy Walsh, which I find invaluable. Imagine if an equivalent ³Learning WxPerl² book existed. I believe the German programmer, Herbert Breunung, contemplated writing such a book, but I don¹t know what the current state is. My personal view is that WxPerl still has a lot to offer but needs to be more appealing to introductory GUI programmers. Kind Regards. ________________________________________ Ron Grunwald ron...@yahoo.com.au http://www.dvlcorner.org On 2/01/16 1:36 AM, "James Lynes" <jmlyne...@gmail.com> wrote: > Johan: > > I see you got an overwhelming response to your post. > > Is anyone still using wxPerl?
