I wonder if the other respondents to this message over-interpreted
your question. I would think the initial answer would be something
like:
Perl/Tk is the standard Perl GUI extension.
To get started, see, for instance:
Chap. 21 (18 in the first ed.) of O'Reilly's "Perl in a Nutshell"
(http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/perlnut2/)
Chapter 14 of O'Reilly's "Advanced Perl Programming"
(http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/advperl/ )
and its chapter 15 Tetris Chapter 16 Man Page Viewer examples.
O'Reilly's "Mastering Perl/Tk"
(http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/mastperltk/)
the comp.lang.perl.tk FAQ at
http://w4.lns.cornell.edu/~pvhp/ptk/ptkFAQ.html
http://www.perltk.org/articles/index.htm, especially:
http://www.perltk.org/articles/Perl_and_the_Tk_Extension.htm
http://www.perltk.org/articles/pm1.htm
Instructions for getting Perl/Tk working on Mac OS X are at
http://www.lehigh.edu/~sol0/Macintosh/X/ptk/,
as discussed in this mailing list in early April.
Good luck!
