As you can see, ask a general Perl question and you'll get a ton of options - don't expect this to change! But to narrow it down for you I'll point you to some resources:
Learning Perl is a great introductory text for the uninitiated.
GUI Options:
Tk (most used I think, works on all platforms)
Win32::GUI (Windows only)
Java::Swing (uses Java's Swing library)
wxPerl
Pseudo-Compiling Options:
Perl Packer (part of Par dist) - recommended
Perl2Exe (third-party application)
Note that both these options permit GUIs. Also, to implement GUIs for large apps you should read up on forking.
Finally, I'd be remiss not to mention always use strict and warnings.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
