Win32-GUI-HyperLink ------------------- VERSION This is Win32::GUI::HyperLink v0.12 INTRODUCTION Win32::GUI::HyperLink is a Win32::GUI class that implements a Label object that acts as a clickable hyperlink: By default it has a 'hand' Cursor, is drawn in blue text rather than black and the text is underlined when the mouse is over the text. The Label can be clicked to launch a hyperlink. REQUIRES Win32::GUI v1.0 or higher Win32::API for full functionality - currently you lose the ability to have the text of the label dynamically underlined when the mouse is over the link if you don't have this module. Win32::GUI::BitmapInline (as distributed with Win32::GUI). This module is only needed if you don't have Win32::API. If neither this module nor Win32:API are available, then the cursor will not change to a hand when the mouse is over the link DOCUMENTATION There is full POD documentation inside the HyperLink.pm file. There is a demonstration script provided, showing most of the features. INSTALLATION To install this module, run the following commands: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install Alternatively, as a manual installation, extract the HyperLink.pm file from the dirtribution, and put it at C:\Perl\site\lib\Win32\GUI (adjust as necessary for your Perl installation directory) A PPM distribution is available at http://www.robmay.me.uk/win32gui/ COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE Copyright (C) 2005 Robert May This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- $Id: README,v 1.3 2005/03/01 02:21:53 Robert May Exp $
