Someone should get the maintainer of the wxWidgets site to update its info on wxLua.

We hope to have a release at the end of this week or probably next week and I was going to post it to all the different places, wxWidgets, lua.org, scintilla (has link to old dead site). I also *still* have to get around writing some more docs about programming in wxLua and also in C++ using wxLua. Have you tried the latest wxLua using 5.1? You had some fixes and what not from before which I tried to merge in. I think I got them all, but I forget about the event handling change you wanted. I think I had another way in mind that was equivalent, but a little less intrusive. Let us know if there's any other improvements and obviously patches for them would be great.

Unfortunately, I have not. I was waiting for things to settle down, which they seem to have. But my situation has recently changed. The startup that was funding Emma has fallen on tough times and cancelled my project. So I will be moving to a REAL job and Emma will become a hobby. But I hope to switch over to the new code base soon. I really believe the declarative approach that Emma brings is really valuable to GUI apps using wxLua. On that subject, I was wondering about a couple of things. Does your incarnation of wxLua include the Scintilla widget (StyledTextWidget I think it is referred to as)? Also, what about dockable windows? I know that there are at least 3 solutions for this for wxWidgets. I tried to integrate the FL stuff into a different project I was doing a couple of years ago and found it pretty buggy. Even now, it is supposedly part of wxWidgets, but there is little documentation about it. wxAUI looks promising and claims to be the next "standard" for wxWidgets. Then there is DockIt, which I know little about. Any support for these in wxLua? Good luck on your upcoming release! -- chris marrin ,""$, ch...@ma... b` $ ,,.

You're right about the FL being a little crufty. The other docking libs sound nice, but I haven't tried either of them. If someone wanted to write bindings for them we could add it, but I won't do this myself since I'd rather not bother with something that I don't use and don't want to have to maintain.
