Nice - with a good set of examples it would certainly show what Win32-GUI is 
capable off.

One thing I did notice - and this is a minor issue and not really related to 
your script - is how XP styles are handled. To get XP styles turned on by 
default, a manifest file has to be in the same directory as the running exe 
(i.e., perl or wperl) - if the manifest is missing, then you get the "old" 
window look - as I had the manifest for perl, but not for wperl I was 
getting an inconsistent look when toggling the console window option. I'm 
wondering if these manifest files should be installed automatically as part 
of the installation process?
