NAME

build-example-app.pl - Interactively generates a new xul application and links it to mozilla. This is the program to try first.

SYNOPSIS

build-example-app.pl

DESCRIPTION

build-example-app.pl is used to generate new code from the answers to user questions and the other scripts present in xulkit. If you want a simple beginning application that you can play with, this is the first script you should run. This software will ask you a variety of things including the name and version number of the software you'd like. It will then generate a working example for you to edit and experiment with. The program also generates a template that can be used by the other scripts in xulkit.
