I searched on google, and here, no ansewers yet.

I want to build a simple gui with perl backend, the best example to describe why, I want to make a perl+Tk app to run through directories and list movies, and match the titles to pictures of them.

I need to be able to display the images, can I do this with perl and Tk? I have been using perl for awhile, but have never used Tk.

Anyone know of any tutorials or sample code to display an image with perl / Tk , or will I need some other things in addition?

I have multiple uses for this, ie: mp3's, MAME Games, movies, ect ect. And would like to get it done. ( I have built the untimate set-top box and neet to make the interface for browsing titles on the screen. )

Please help if you can ;)

• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
