Whups! Where did the body of that message go? Oh, here it is: I found this little gem on the gnome-components mailing list: <snip> I have setup a ps version of inside ole. The preface is missing as well as some notes but well... http://www.stud.enst.fr/~lacage/gnome/inside-ole.ps.gz </snip> This (811 page! okay its not so little) book provides in-depth coverage of Micro$oft's component software integration environment OLE, including the common object model (COM). GNOME uses this model as the basis for bonobo.
