Have used Perl for many years, starting w/ Perl 4.
I am retired now and decided to contribute something to the community.
In particular, see http://www.rtbaileyphd.com/perlwizard
PerlWizard - A free wizard for automatic Perl software code generation using simple forms
Summary. PerlWizard quickly generates front ends for user-friendly Perl scripts for Unix and Windows, with emphasis on the user interface, managing defaults files, and providing help. The generated user interface supplies defaults for unentered options, validates options, and records options for use as defaults on subsequent runs of the generated scripts. This makes PerlWizard scripts much more interactive and friendly than typical command line programs. Once PerlWizard generates the front end, the programmer just needs to go to the bottom of the generated code and start writing. No need to worry about how to set up Getopt::Long calls, initialization files, built-in help, log files, etc. PerlWizard is available at http://www.rtbaileyphd.com/perlwizard
Basically, you just need to fill out a few simple forms, click a few buttons, and you can quickly jump into coding the guts of your script without bothering with all the boilerplate needed to produce a robust, user-friendly Perl application.
