I've used glade before. Not with perl, but with pike. Different language, but I've used it for the same purpose.

I generally don't use the output directly, myself. What I mean is, well, glade output is xml, pike (for example) has a glade.xml reader. You initialize gnome/gtk, then glade, and tell it to read in the xml file and it generates the ui for you (it uses the libglade library for this). However, for me right now (unless I'm missing something, which is very possible) it's a little hard to make dynamic ui's.

What I do is use it for a visuallation tool. I rearrange the components until I find something I like, then I use that to generate some handwritten code. It makes it easier for me to know where everything is, to add callbacks and the like.

Just me...
