• Commented on CPAN Day - 317 Uploads and 21 Guns

  The subs in _ALLCAPS are handlers I defined in wxGlade, then modified. The GUI builder seemed to do a fine job of differentiating between my code and the generated code in subsequent save/code exports.

  Packaging is something I need to figure out. There are some neat projects out there, but I haven't explored them at all. A couple I found for Windows that I have no idea if they're even good for this, are:
