> (Ged, Sorry for the off-list response) Apology accepted. :) Actually for some reason it found its way to my backup mail exchanger so it sat there a while unnoticed. But this thread's not OT at all. Quite the reverse, it addresses an important issue which we all face from time to time. I don't think I can add much to what Perrin has said. If you're up against it because you've walked into a heap of Perl scripts that grew like Topsy, you probably don't want to spend the time and take the risk of making wholesale changes, especially if the thing is doing pretty much what it needs to do. But I'd echo Perrin's call for a bit of design thinking if you're taking it to the next stage of its lifecycle. There's a lot of experience hiding around here somewhere, and nothing provokes a longer thread than a thorny issue. Not that I need a lot more mail... :) > It seems to me that most people these days are using toolkits There are probably good reasons for that. I think Perrin is the one who's done most on comparing and contrasting them, but if you want to make a contribution you could do worse than take a few of them out for a spin and let us know what you find. By all means ask what other people think about them for your situation first. 73, Ged. -- Report problems: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html List etiquette: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/email-etiquette.html
