Subject: Wcl-2.7.3 uploaded for X11::Wcl
Date: 27 Apr 1998 15:27:10 GMT

I just uploaded Wcl-2.7.3 to PAUSE.  Compared to Wcl-2.7.2,
this version has been ported to RedHat 5.0 linux and swim motif
2.1.  I also tested it under AIX 3.2.5, AIX 4.2 and HPUX 10, so
I don't think I broke anything compared to 2.7.2.

Wcl-2.7.3 is a library for generating GUI interfaces based on widgets
that use Xt.  It allows widget trees and callbacks to be specified using
X resource files.

The X11::Wcl module provides access to the library from PERL, allowing
rapid generation of GUI interfaces using Xt toolkits such as Motif.
A trivial example supplied with the X11::Wcl tar.gz is attached.

# It does not require Motif 2.0.

    ARGV => ["XmPushButton", "-trrf"],
    DELETE => \&delete_window,

    CALLBACKS => [
        ["buttonCB", \&buttonCB, "argument object"],

sub delete_window

    print "closed by window manager\n";
}

# exit button was pressed
#
# $widget is the invoking widget, of type Widget
# $arg1 is the argument string appearing in the resource that caused
#     this callback to be invoked
# $arg2 is the callback struct; it must be cast into the proper type
#     using the proper constructor
# $arg3 is the argument from callback registration time; it is
#     whatever PERL object was passed to X11::Wcl::WcRegisterCallback()
sub buttonCB
{
    my($widget, $arg1, $arg2, $arg3) = @_;

    print "exit button pressed\n";
