I've been thinking about porting some MacPerl Toolbox modules (see thread `cocoa interfaces'). However in the meantime I've discovered wxPerl (wxPerl.sourceforge.net), and am tempted to go this direction instead (wxPerl still has to be ported to MacOS*, but that should not be too difficult and the author has assured his support in the process (he doesn't have a mac)). I don't know whether wxWindows supports the essential AppleEvent stuff, if not, then a Carbon AE Toolbox module would probably still be needed. Though the guys that will be working with us on our software still could use plain C(++) instead, so it's not sure yet whether we will work on any perl related MacOS* stuff. Anyone with wxWindows experience on the Mac? Anyone wanting to help in the process? Christian.
