Xref: usenet.cise.ufl.edu comp.lang.perl.announce:212 comp.lang.perl.modules:7461 Hello The Puppet::LogBody results from a split of the Tk part and the functional part of Puppet::Log. Here's the readme file from this new module: This class implements a log facility which can either print on STDOUT or warn on STDERR (or hide) the log message. But in any case, the log message will be stored in the class so that all log messages can be retrieved later by the user. Suggested DSLI entry : Puppet:: LogBody bdpO Logging facility DDUMONT Note: This class does *not* use Tk. If you want a Tk based log facility, you can use Puppet::Log instead, they have the same interface. About Puppet body classes Puppet classes are a set of utility classes which can be used by any object. If you use directly the Puppet::*Body class, you get the plain functionnality. And if you use the Puppet::* class, you can get the same functionnality and a Tk Gui to manage it. Cheers -- Dominique_Dumont@grenoble.hp.com .
