Because the 2000+ page wx.pdf documentation file takes way too long to wade/search through

Where did you get this Wx.pdf?

Try the chm file from http://wxperl.sourceforge.net/download.html or the zip/html.

Also, see Re^5: Packaging Perl Programs (is) Painful, ignore the parts about pain/gtk :)

Re^8: C++ to wxPerl Conversion

    At this point I don't remember where I got the wx.pdf documentation. It's titled: "wxWidgets 2.8.10:A Portable C++ and Python GUI Toolkit". Authors: Smart,Roebling, Zeitlin, Dunn,et al, Feb 2009, 2381pages. I downloaded the HTML document and posting you suggested. Thank you. The wx.pdf has no Perl or Python notes, so the HTML doc should be a big help. I think I already have the other files that were referenced in the posting. When I get this figured out, I will have to write a how-to and post it for other lost people like myself. Thanks again.

      I have now ported most of the example programs from chapter 5 of the wxBook( Device Contexts and Drawing). I am creating a spreadsheet/table of the differences between the C++ syntax and the wxPerl syntax. Some is very similar and some quite different. I found that the wx.pdf document does contain a few wxPython and wxPerl references

        I have now ported about 30 wxBook C++ examples to wxPerl. The porting will continue as I have an interest in a particular chapter/topic. Would posting these examples somewhere be of any interest to anyone?
