Can't really be done. See perlTk Type Tutor - useful for learning a DVORAK keyboard layout for an example, uncomment "-background => undef" (kinda works on Win32 -- not very useful). Practically no toolkit with perl bindings has the ability to do this nice. With wxPerl you can write on the screen all you want, but you can't capture mouse clicks and such ... I guess what really needs to happen is for someone to write it in C(++), and then create a perl binding for it (that goes for Tk or any other toolkit).

Super searching is not the be'all'and'end'all of searching, especially when you're digging for perlTk information ( http://google.com, http://perltk.org ).

I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).
