OMG, abandonded too ? not really thing is that I started to study (2 completely different subjects) but my thesis will be bases on a WxPerl program thats why mainly I'm back on track since 2 month or so.
Since Wx is huge there are lot of details to try out before I ca write ebout them and i also have to carefully check my 11 part WxPerl tutorial where I found already bugs in the code. if you have some chapters about something to drop please send me stuff or just check lichtkind on bitbucket where i have a repo for the book but also the kephra/proto/function/bin in the cp branch of Kephra which not only serve this project also as upcoming demo programs for the book. (I'm currently wrestling with toolbars) So in short I pretend that I can do it but help will make it faster :) best Herbert > Hi James: > > On 01/10/14 15:32, James Lynes wrote: >> I saw a few recent posts concerning an Installation Cookbook and was >> wondering if any more work has been done on this topic.
