    <p>There are a number of options listed in <a href="http://perldoc.perl.org/perlfaq3.html#How-can-I-write-a-GUI-%28X,-Tk,-Gtk,-etc.%29-in-Perl?" rel="nofollow noreferrer">perlfaq3</a> and some additional ones that aren't. I'm only familiar with the Tk-based ones.</p> <p><a href="http://search.cpan.org/dist/Tk" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Perl/Tk</a> has the most "perlish" interface but it hasn't been updated to take advantage of tile (native/themed widget) support in the current version of Tk (and probably never will be). <a href="http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Tkx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Tkx</a> uses a different bridge to Tk. It allows access to everything in Tk (and it's faster, too) but the syntax is less perlish. Tkx is designed to be a thin wrapper over Tk; you have to consult the Tk documentation for most things and translate for using it from Perl. The <a href="http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Tcl::Tk" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Tcl/Tk</a> module uses the same bridge as Tkx but supports a syntax that's mostly the same as Perl/Tk.</p> <p>Whether or not you need to compile anything depends on which version of Perl you use. If you use Strawberry Perl you'll probably have to compile something no matter what toolkit you choose. ActivePerl distributions have included Tkx since sometime in the 5.8.x cycle and stopped bundling Tk as of 5.10, although it's still available via PPM. Tcl/Tk is available from CPAN but I haven't been able to get it to work with the Tk library that comes bundled with ActivePerl; you may need to install Tcl separately to use it.</p> <p>Personally, I used to use Perl/Tk but now use Tkx.</p>
