Tk::Wizard - Wizard GUI Framework ================================= IMPORTANT CHANGE(S) FROM PREVOUS VERSION(S) As of Tk::Wizard version 2.044 (distribution version 2.111), the -width and -height arguments to blank_frame() are applied to the CONTENT AREA ONLY, not to the entire Wizard window. Use the new Tk::Wizard::Sizer module (included with this distro) to semi-automatically recalculate what you should pass in the -width and -height arguments. INSTALLATION This module can be installed in the normal perl way, such as: perl -MCPAN -e "install Tk::Wizard" or, unpack the archive and in the new folder execute the following: perl Makefile.PL make all test make install If you are on Windows you might have to use nmake instead of make. If you set environment variable TEST_INTERACTIVE to any non-zero value, some of the tests might pause and you will have to click the "Next" button several times to get through them. DESCRIPTION In the context of this namespace, a Wizard is defined as a graphic user interface (GUI) that presents information, and possibly performs tasks, step-by-step via a series of different pages. Pages (or 'screens', or 'Wizard frames') may be chosen logically depending upon user input. The "Tk::Wizard" module automates a large part of the creation of a wizard program to collect information and then perform some complex task based upon it. The wizard feel is largly based upon the Microsoft(TM,etc) wizard style: the default is similar to that found in Microsoft Windows 95; a more Windows 2000-like feel is also supported (see the "-style" entry in "WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS".) Subclassing the module to provide different look-and-feel is highly encouraged: please see "NOTES ON SUB-CLASSING Tk::Wizard". NB: THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED ALPHA SOFTWARE.
