    You want a tool to create programs with GUIs? There is such a tool. vptk_w. It's old, but actually works. There are some irritating bugs, like you have to use SaveAs instead of Save. And the consistency checker is confused by columnspan and rowspan attributes.

    (I have fixed a few of the bugs, but I have not been able to contact the author.)

    See Tk for creating GUIs.

    update

    Though not sure if this was a weird way of asking for a Perl IDE...(?)

    In this case try one of emacs, vim, komodo edit, padre, eclipse, ...

    Otherwise see How (Not) To Ask A Question
