I just downloaded it and it compiled with 2 errors
Testing ./Widget/Position...failed (2/7)
Testing ./Widget/Window...failed (2/15)
Total tests passed:28, skipped:0, failed:2
BUT.... the examples run well, and the code is not that hard to understand. It looks like gtk2 programming, and the dependent libs are gtk2 on my linux box. I didn't see a drag-n-drop gui-designer. It looks like they make connecting to events and signals easier. I would say it looks very promising, but it has a drab look like Tk( although "looks" depend on
how much you put into it). Interested people should look at the code in the examples subdir......... the code looks like Gtk2.... I might borrow some of their examples and see if they run as pure Gtk2.

I tried it. It works pretty good. I'm *not* a gui programmer by any stretch. I just wanted a little program to start/stop some services in Windows based on which "profile" I clicked. So I just used it because of the visual designer it has. I created a single form with a few buttons on it, saved it as Perl code, then added the important bits afterwards with Vim.
Generating the gui part of what I did took all of 5 minutes, tops. If I had actually cared what it looked like, I could tell there were all sorts of ways I could make it pretty. Play with fonts, graphics, colors, buttons, pretty much anything.
