Hi John,
I think there is no password on the file because I commented a test in
pdftohtml to ignore some kind of protection and out it came. BUT there is no
layout, no pictures only the text. So it is big job to turn it to a nice
document. Anyway the screen capture pictures would probably be old anyway.
I read the OpenContent license of the book and if I understood right it
would make difficult to produce derivative work or wiki - quite impossible
in fact.
Maybe someone with leverage - Benoit - could contact John W Rittinghouse and
ask.
Fact is Gambas needs more documentation to lure users. Also I would be
prepared to pay for a technical document how Gambas works. I have used now
countles hours and I have just scratched the surface. Either I am darn
stupid or Benoit is about to win obfuscated code contest :-) before this day
I know very little about compilers and interpreters and I am not very good
with C - so it is going to take few months...
And Windows version would be nice too :-)
Best Regards
Kari Laine
