in reply to perlTk Type Tutor - useful for learning a DVORAK keyboard layout

First, PodMaster++!

Second, the switching of the keyboard didn't work because your SwitchLayout function takes a HoH as argument, while your menu-commands only supplies a single hash. It works like a charm if you would change lines 305/306 to:

$f->command(-label=>'QWERTY', -command=>[\&SwitchLayout, $a=>\%QWERTY] +); $f->command(-label=>'DVORAK', -command => [\&SwitchLayout, $a=>\%DVORA +K]);
(Yes, I misabused the global $a for this purpose ;-)

Hope it helps,

    Thanks.

    I guess I was thinking $f (the ~Layout menu) would be the first thing passed ~ anyway, I've updated the original post and fixed sub SwitchLayout, and all the calls to it ;)(no dumb 2arg blah)

    Now I can work on some kind of prompting wizard type dealie (now type 'A', and 'A' would light up)
