in reply to Event based programming: Callbacks or "Interfaces"?

The second way, which I've called "interface", although perhaps "inheritance" or some other word would better describe it, is how, for example, WxWindows does things.
Getting off topic here for a second, but thats a bad example. wxWindows uses callbacks (and besides, theres nothing stopping you from subclassing a Tk::Button).

I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).
