Though I haven't used it for a while I liked wxPerl and used glade though was paranoid about code getting lost with GUI updates (IIRC it should be preserved if you keep your code in the right places..) so it is best as an early prototype, or to see how to get things done, then you can just hack yourself.
FWIW I've often thought that it would be very useful to create a utility that provides an interactive text-based dialog with the developer to build prototypes for this. wxGlade was extremely frustrating (which is probably why people use the commercial version).
There once was an AI system (I forget the name - something treasury I think) that used ascii art drawings to map rooms and tell the system where the bed is, etc. in order to describe the plot of a story. I've thought ascii art (or more modern) representations might be interesting ways to quickly block out GUI layouts, and (though it shouldn't be) be a lot faster than frustrating wxGlade. FWIW.

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).

are good places to start.
