ANNOUNCING: Xforms4Perl Version 0.8.4
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Announcing the 0.8.4 version of Xforms4Perl, the extension to Perl that
allows you to call the Xforms GUI api from a standard Perl script.
This new version fully supports the recent Xforms 0.88 public release,
while still supporting release 0.86.
It also contains two MAJOR NEW VALUE ADDED FEATURES (for both 0.86 and
0.88):
. The Class Initialization Callback which allows you to
register a callback for an object type which gets invoked
whenever an object of that type is created.
. The Global Initialization Script, which allows you to write Xforms
initialization procedures that get automatically invoked for all
scripts that use Xforsm4Perl.
The release also contains some new DEMOs, a large number of bug-fixes, and
enhanced (and corrected!) documentation.
It will work with Perl 5.003 and Perl 5.004 on most UNIX systems.
You have two options for installation:

ftp://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/pub/xforms/Contrib
