Hi Chris,
Thats interesting. Wow it's been a while since I thought of tcl/tk
(which I loved actually :-) ) ... While on the autogeneration subject
how do you deal with shortcut creation? do you exclude files to which
you want to create shortcuts in the auto generated step and then add
then in manually hand rolled components?
Also do you get any validation errors when you have hex id values? I
saw some errors where it complained that the file had a version but
didn't have a language field (not 100% sure if it was ID related or
name) but just wondering if the hex id results in clean validation or
gives errors?
thanks in advance + kind regards,
Kaveh.
