I think Bill is referring to load-on-demand Perl app from the browser. If I read Zoot right, it's a Windows app running on Tk.

Unfortunately Bill, I don't know of any movement on Perl in this area. Perhaps with Perl 6 this will be possible. And even then P6 is years away...

Hi everyone,
I know this may sound weird, but does anyone know
of a way to produce essentially applet-like functionality
using Perl ?

I need to do a GUI, much like a normal (non-web) application
would have. It needs to support creating and editing a graph -- moving rectangular nodes around, writing text
into them, changing types of the links, etc.
This goes far beyond what HTML allows.
I understand that much of it can be achieved via
JavaScript, but that would make it browser-dependent.
The only viable option that I see is writing an applet.
But before I dive into Java, I'd like to see if there is
any option left with my beloved Perl.


Any suggestions ?



Sounds like Zooz. http://search.cpan.org/src/AQUMSIEH/ZooZ-1.1/

Tk should be able to handle all that, but there's alearning curve.
