Very nice idea. I liked the QTk Prototyper, and it offered quick
insights which I could verify immediately by changing program fragments.
I second this!

So who's writing the code/doc snippets?? :-)

Cheers, Mathias

P.S.: I still like the idea of making the book available on the
documentation page. I think the book is extremely helpful to get an idea
of what posibilities are there and when to use them - which is one of
the more puzzling question oz confronted me with. The book actually
makes me feel safer when programming, feeling I have better
understanding of the options available to me and their pros and cons.
