in thread Tired of "Perl is dead" FUD ?

Do you have any examples of work that you've done that we could look at? I'd love to see Perl in some GUI-action.

Also, if I understand it correctly, wxWidgets provide a single interface to numerous GUI platforms, rendering controls natively, so that your application would fit in with other applications in your environment. Which sounds like a great idea. Yet, I hear mixed opinions about it. Is that because the only way to support multiple platforms is to only allow controls/actions/interactions common to all platforms, thus eschewing the more interesting features of each platform? Or is there some other reason?.

Like I said, I'm ignorant about the GUI side, but interested in learning more.

thanks
