I own "Learning Perl/Tk" and have fiddled around with Perl/Tk and various other Perl GUI toolkits over the years: http://press.oreilly.com/pub/pr/872 http://www.prima.eu.org/ http://perl-win32-gui.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/docs.cgi http://www.wxwidgets.org/ None has ever fully satisfied my desires. If I were to do it again, I'd also look at Perl/Gtk: http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net/ Briefly searching for "perl gui toolkits" turned up some useful pages: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.beginners/2008/02/msg98826.html http://www.atai.org/guitool/ http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Perl_Programming/GUI_Programming I've observed that Perl has never been a popular choice for GUI applications. I won't attempt to explain why. A wish-list project for myself is to clean up my Bash/ Perl/ ssh/ tar/ rsync backup scripts and build a UI. I want to keep it as simple as possible. My current plan is to use Apache, Perl, and CGI. HTH, David -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
