Re: How to name a module providing a systray morbo controller

I have a script (systray-morbo.pl) that creates a systray icon on Windows.

Naming things is notoriously hard. However, if it is only designed to run under MS Windows I think it would be appropriate to put that somewhere in the name.

I see that there is already a Win32::SysTray module - how much does this differ from yours? If it does something similar but for the general case, is there a benefit to having a second module which is more specifically just for Morbo? I don't know as I am not a Windows user. Perhaps your module already uses this other one and builds upon it which might be useful.

If your code is already accessible somewhere, perhaps a link to it would help others with an interest suggest and appropriate name and course of action. If it's small you could even post it here.

Good questions. Maybe it is a duplicate to Win32::SysTray. Still, I kind of would like to re-use the code in an easier way than copying the script from one webapp to the next one. And even when using Win32::SysTray, I would have this issue. The code can be seen here: https://gist.github.com/asb-capfan/a626e48e6e6d11ba0dc1570e53f37769	[reply]
