Re: Installation Cookbook

OMG, abandonded too ? not really

thing is that I started to study (2 completely different subjects)
but my thesis will be bases on a WxPerl program thats why mainly I'm back on
track since 2 month or so.

Since Wx is huge there are lot of details to try out before I ca write ebout
them and i also have to carefully check my 11 part WxPerl tutorial where I
found already bugs in the code.

if you have some chapters about something to drop please send me stuff or just
check lichtkind on bitbucket where i have a repo for the book
but also the kephra/proto/function/bin in the cp branch of Kephra
which not only serve this project also as upcoming demo programs for the book.
(I'm currently wrestling with toolbars)

So in short I pretend that I can do it but help will make it faster :)

best

Herbert
