Dear perl-win32-gui-users, hm.. again .. i'm really happy with the win32 development.. i got some simple questions (or more like a wishlist :) ) * is there a spreadsheet (grid) look-a-like solution or component ? * is there a inline webbrowser somewhere ? or a HTML or XML parser ? * is there support for JPG or common image formats like .PNG or .GIF? since i only found how to open a BITMAP image (i assume this is a .BMP file) what about licensing ? if i develop a product in perl with usage of the win32::gui module, and I spread (well lets asume for FREE) to the public.. is it still under GNU license or do we have to pay the win32::gui team something ? GREAT.. the win32::gui Best regards, Danny Zak mailto:da...@be... co-ceo Euro-Pictures/belGOnet.com Princesse Elisabeth Square 9/11 1030 Brussels Belgium Tel : +32-(0)2-215.67.65 Fax : +32-(0)2-215.66.65 |

I'm not a lawyer and I don't want to pay a lawyer :-) Win32::GUI is released under the Artistic License, eg. you can redistribute it under the same terms of Perl itself. cheers, Aldo __END__ $_=q,just perl,,s, , another ,,s,$, hacker,,print; |
