Well, that's indeed confusing. Can you then build Prima from sources
( better if from the latest cvs snapshot ), but with win32/gp.c
taken from http://www.karasik.eu.org/misc/gp.c ? Or, if your perl is
5.8.0, try to replace Prima.dll with one from
http://www.karasik.eu.org/misc/Prima.dll, I just compiled the debug
printouts there. It might be so ( we'll see the debug though ) that
GetTextMetricsW() is the nonexistent function.

If it is indeed so, I need to find a win9x machine to test all new
things in Prima...

Yes, that's probably the way. If the highlighting can be taken out as
an extension, that would simplify the widget alot.
