[erlang-questions] wxErlang question 4

[Steve Davis]

1) One of those projects that I haven’t had time for. If there was interest, it may rekindle my interest in moving it along. Looking back, with the second prototype I diverged too far from the GS way of doing this as I got focused on XML definitions and so the interactive REPL part suffered. it’s really code in mid-flight.

2) However, the code still seems to work under R20 - See console session below:
