Hi,

this sound pretty good, thanks for the quick replies. If I understand this correctly (I havent used SWIG before), we could get this in the Perl bindings by adding a similar typemap for Perl?

I won't attempt it myself, since I know neither Perl, nor swig, but I will head over to the git folks and tell them that this should be easy to add.

Cheers,
Nikolaus
