It's old and primitive, but it works with minimal headaches on pretty much every platform you can think of
Platforms I immediately think of: the web browser, tablets, smart phones, JVM. Granted, Perl doesn't run on them either (but that's something Jesse would like to see fixed), but thinking "pretty much every platform you can think of" are Windows/Linux/Other Unix/Mac OSses running their GUIs is very 1990s. The world has moved on. "Platform" nowadays is so much more.
I don't know any platform that runs Perl/Tk, but doesn't run a graphical web browser. But I bet I'll see dozens of platforms fully capable of running web browsers, but not Perl/Tk in my walk from the office to the train station.

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.
