Subject: [Za-pm] IDE/Editor
Message-ID: <1090487251.21417.28.camel@seanc.uznet.uz>

I've just downloaded and am having a look at Eclipse 3
<http://www.eclipse.org/> with the EPIC
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/e-p-i-c/> plug-in.

I am a long-time XEmacs user, but all that might change.

Has anybody else looked at this? Does it explode after a week's use,
taking all your files with it?

What editors/IDEs are others using?

Subject: [Za-pm] PDF Text Colour using PDF::API2
Message-ID: <1091025506.9313.139.camel@hercules.jbpn>

Hi Everyone,

I am busing using the perl module PDF::API2 to generate pdf's.
Generating the PDF's is fine except for one thing; when I try and set
the text to be a certain colour the text stays black.

According to the examples and the documentation (which is realy bad) all
you need to do is pass it a value for the specific colour like so :

$text->text_center( "This colour is red",-color=>["red"],-underline=>1 )
;

But this doesn't work. Has anybody used this before and can possibly
shed some light on it?

Cheers
Theunis De Klerk

I walked into a library once and asked the librarian 
where the self-help sections was,
she refused to tell me cause it defeated the point.
