Re: Clearing / rewriting a line in the console (windows)

I saw a wonderful example of Win32::Console sometime in the last year that was a demo application that featured drop down menus, background colors, etc.. I *thought* it was a demo bundled up with either the module or one of the common perl distributions/versions. Alas I can't find it anywhere though..and that sucks because I thought it was a gem as far as demo apps go.

In short though if you want a lot of power/ability Win32::Console is an option. If I find the demo app I'll post a link or info of where to find it.

I think that this may be the demo you are thinking of? Examine what is said, not who speaks. "Efficiency is intelligent laziness." -David Dunham "Think for yourself!" - Abigail	[reply]

Yes! Thats where I saw it.. While puting together a perl 5.8 compile/installation on a windows box a while ago. Its the test script for the Win32::Console module itself. That explains why I couldn't find it on my system. It doesn't install with the module itself - its only included in archive for testing the build.(thanks!)	[reply]
