Good advice overall. Bear in mind that there might be some differences between platforms. I think people are right to complain about the default look of Tk - it's ugly, no doubt about it. I like it, though. Tk is quick, simple, and available on practically every platform. I think there's a watch around here somewhere that can do Tk.
Anyways, the point I think I was trying to make: Perl/Tk on Win32 looks different than Perl/Tk on X11. Fiddling with the settings might not look as good on each platform.
Also remember that experienced users may have already adjusted their configurations a bit. I usually stick with the default look and feel. Less for me to remember. But don't let my laziness stop you from making Perl/Tk show an attractive appearance :-)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
