In Three Steps Begin Programming
With XBLite
This is the most up to date version of the XBLite Programming Language
download file. It
contains the XBLite compiler, XSED code editor, utilities,
demos, source code, and the XLBLite HTML Help reference
manual.
Unzip all of the files in the archive in your root directory, eg c:\,
while maintaining the folder names. This will install the files
to an \xblite folder. A file archiving and compression utility such as WinZip can easily do this. Then make
sure to read the Getting Started section of the
XBLite HTML
Help file.
The Win32 Programmers Reference win32.hlp is an invaluable resource for
programming under all 32-bit Windows OS's. It contains information on
functions and types found in the key win32 libraries such as gdi32.dll
and user32.dll.
Join the XBLite
mailing list on GoogleGroups to get help with all of your XBLite
programming questions.
