Ah, now well there perhaps I'm being a little harsh. Pelr-Gtk2 is just over 2 months old now. That's not a very long time. he fact that it's got this far already I find very encouraging. I'd play with the alpha release and see where you get, myself. -- Tom Insam [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Check out [EMAIL PROTECTED] (http://lists.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list) for more info. It looks like you can already write a working program, but the API is still a bit fluid. I'm still using gtk version one, and not very actively recently, so this is just my limited understanding of what's been said on the list. -- Peter Haworth [EMAIL PROTECTED] Democracy is overrated. I think a meritocracy is needed. Perhaps measured by Perl competence. -- Simon Cozens
