[Gambas-user] New gambas tutorial

[Henri Girard]

well... I think we need quick simples samples specially for newbies...
i read your tutorial to see if i could translate it in french... But while
translating
i will use my own "style" so your tut is ok...
if i need more details i will read about wiki and pick up what i need
for example i wanted to replace open by ouvrir and i wrote : OuvrirClick()
but it didn't work i had to write Ouvrir_Click()
a detail i didn't know ! lol
good job :)
Henri
