Thank you for your response.

This actually isn't the first time I've wrangled with Gtk on Windows, so I'm fairly disenchanted with that, especially as their site very pointedly says the downloads are intended for devs, not end users. It's one thing for me to fight to shove a lib into place; quite another for me to ask my users to do it.

I think what I'll be using is Prima. It installed cleanly from cpan under Strawberry, and the Web shows it had a release within the last 3 months.

However, I welcome any further thoughts anyone might have on a better option, as I haven't yet had a chance to dig into Prima's documentation.
