I've committed an initial perl module library so that it may be tested.
This new perl library is based on the old X11::Fvwm module, but I redid it
and simplified. Hopefully it is more clean now. It should also support
extended module messages, but this is not really tested.
Here is a simple auto-raise module in perl:
use FVWM::Module;
my $module = new FVWM::Module;
$module->mask(M_FOCUS_CHANGE);
$module->addHandler(M_FOCUS_CHANGE, sub { $_[0]->sendInfo($_[2], "Raise") });
$module->eventLoop();
The things that I will like to do sometimes soon:
* implement missing module config methods
* implement some alias handling (?)
* finalize API
* write documentation
* think about an optional Perl/GTK and Perl/Tk support
There are 2 simple test modules in tests/perl directory, just run them
in FvwmConsole using their full path, after "make; make install".
A testing is needed. If someone searches for a challenging toy to program,
implement a one page pager in text mode inside xterm. No ncurses is needed
(unless you want to implement window dragging too), just standard terminal
escape sequenses and maybe pseudo-graphics. It should be not hard in perl.
Regards,
Mikhael.
