~
~
~ I was wondering when the next release of Boa was going to be.
~ There appears
~ to be things added to the CVS every couple of weeks.
~
~ I tried the latest CVS version and it looks really great with a lot of new
~ features from what I remember from looking at it before.  This is going to
~ be a nice tool for creating applications using wxPython in a logical and
~ consistent way.
~
~ I had a few problems though, and was prevented from finishing the tutorial
~ by a crash.  I hope the notes below are of help.

~ When going through the tutorial.
~ CVS 2000/11/29
~ W95, wxPython 2.2.2, python 2.0
~
~ 0) The font in the editor source window is very large and I don't see an
~ easy way to change it.  Some clarification is needed in the .cfg
~ preferences to make it easier.  It currently looks like a 16 pt. font with
~ only 16 lines shown.
~
~ 1) After wxApp and wxFrame created.  Unable to run.  Computer freezes.
~  You can run the wxApp file outside Boa and the frame comes up OK.
~
~ 2) Creating Menu. "Edit the name of the first wxMenu to call it mnuFile."
~    This shows an error dialog with "Invalid name for Python object".
~
~ 3) After making the menus and trying to save the changes using
~ the Post button on the Editor, Boa crashes with
~
~ PYTHON executed an invalid instruction in
~ module <unknown> at 0000:0180aef8.
~
~ I tried this twice and got the same crash both times.
~
~ 4) One small thing that would be nice is to change the naming convention
~ from "OnMnuhelpitems0Menu" to "OnMnuhelpAboutMenu" for the "About" menu
~ item.  That way we don'ts have to remember that item0 is really About.
