We have uploaded the next PDK Beta feature to the FTP server: VBSPerl, a
VBScript (and VBA) to Perl converter.

A Windows binary is available from this location:

    ftp://pdkbeta:grett0uf@ftp.activestate.com/VBSPerl-Beta1.zip

From our point of view, this tool is really only useful on the Windows
platform, so we don't intend to create binaries for Unix. Please let us
know if you disagree with this decision.

Please refer to the documentation included in the ZIP file for
information about installing and using the tool. If you have any
questions not covered by the documentation, please send them to us so
that we can record them in the bug database.

We are also interested in both interesting examples that could be
translated with VBSPerl, as well as in VBScript code that is not being
treated correctly by this tool.

We are planning to add a GUI interface to the converter in the future.
If there are specific features you would like to see, please let us know
about those as well.

Cheers,
-Jan
