There is SpecTcl, and the old SpecPerl which can build Tk. I played with it a bit, but was never too happy with it. Guido is being worked on. Glade (for Gtk) seems to be much more usable.	[reply]

Here's another for Gtk, seems to be under active development: PerlComposer. Haven't tried it myself, though.	[reply]

I ususally muck around with Tcl/Tk's wish before translating it into Perl/Tk and ploping in code. I'm wondering if folks would write up a Perl version of wish... hmmm, phish, perhapse? -- $Stalag99{"URL"}="http://stalag99.keenspace.com";	[reply]

ptksh is shipped with ActiveState's version of the Tk module, I assumed it was standard. It gives you a command window and a Tk MainWindow so you can do things like: `$b = $mw->Button(-text => "Hello")->pack;` and a button appears. -- Kevin O'Rourke	[reply] [d/l]

ptksh is a standard part of Tk. In your preferred shell, type `perldoc ptksh` [download] for more info.	[reply] [d/l]

Although it is not Tk but Gtk (minor change, only one char), you can do GUI-ish thingies with glade in perl mode. For all you win32 heads, gtk is supposed to run on win32 systems. I recall trying it out (linux), ending up with some POE code. Never looked at it again, I'm more a CLI kind of guy. Cheers, Jeroen	[reply]
