Hi, I am currently comparing Tk with Win32::GUI. Seeing that I'll be programming for Win32, protability (to unix/mac) is not needed. In just a short time (with win32::GUI) i was able to write simple windows already. albeit crude, at least it took me a lot less time than with Tk. Perlapp and GUI

What parts of Tk are you having trouble understanding? I only know Perl Tk, but I do know that it is _extremely_ powerful. There are a few counter intuitive (for me) constructs, but once you catch on to the syntax things aren't too bad. I don't know if any of the other GUI's are more powerful, bu
