The scanner provide a GUI to scan the attributes of an object. It can also be used to scan the elements of a hash or an array. The scanner is a composite widget made of a HList and a text window (actually a L). This widget acts as a scanner to the object (or hash ref) passed with the 'caller' parameter. The scanner will retrieve all keys of the hash/object and insert them in the HList. When the user double clicks on a key, the corresponding value will be added in the HList. If the value is a scalar, the scalar will be displayed in the text window. (Which is handy if the value is a multi-line string) Note that the look and fell is completely changed compared to previous version. This module was written with perl5.00502 and Tk 800.013 See the embedded documentation in the module for more details. Comments and suggestions are always welcome. Many thanks to Achim Bohnet for all the tests, patches (and reports) he made. Many improvements were made thanks to his efforts. Legal mumbo jumbo: Copyright (c) 1997-1999 Dominique Dumont.
