Hi,
I think that this is a relly good idea, maybe we can start from the
modified Win32::GUI documentation bundled with The Gui Loft
(http://www.bahnhof.se/~johanl/perl/Loft/), to insert the various
(up-to-now) "undocumented" features that sometimes we found in this maili=
ng
list.
The first thing we can do is to post messages as FAQ items (using "FAQ -
short description of item" as subject) to begin collecting articles about
Win32::GUI.
I think that Aldo would found useful to collect these articles and includ=
e
them in the documentation.
Bye.

PS: I'm glad you have appreciated my little work about Animated/Layered
Windows. Thanks.
