[MacPerl] WASTELib.pm help needed

[Brian McNett <webmaster@mycoinfo.com>]

All--

Attached is the preliminary XS file for this which was just sitting here 
on my hard disk the past several months, but because of ongoing work both 
with Mycoinfo, and some new developments with some outside open-source 
projects (alpha-testing component software for Taxy 
<http://www.mycoinfo.com/taxy/>), I haven't actually attempted to compile 
it.

If anyone is interested, this is a MacPerl interface to the WASTE 1.3 
API.  As I've had to explain this before, I'll explain it again:  This 
will allow one to write MacPerl apps which use the WASTE engine.  It does 
NOT modify the text-editor within MacPerl to use WASTE!

I've not actually compiled the shared library to go with this, and as 
such it's not ready for prime time. Since I HAVEN'T compiled it, I'm not 
even sure that it works at all. You'll need a compiler (prefereably 
Codewarrior), the MacPerl source, and the WASTE 1.3 source (Yes, I have 
all those things (and more).  What I don't have is the time).

This is an open invitation to pick up the ball and run with it.  There 
may still be considerable work left to make this operational, OR, you may 
get lucky and find that everything works without modification (unlikely). 
 I find I don't have enough time to devote to this myself, and I hate to 
see the project languish.
