Hi Monks :)

I have a problem. I want to show a messagebox when program starts if something's wrong. I do it before mainloop. after clicking ok the program freezes! how can i show a messagebox at startup? i cant do it after calling to mainloop (errors).
Maybe timers could help but i don't like that solution. can anybody help?

thaks :) 
#/usr/bin/perl

use Tk;

#sub msgb;

$mw = MainWindow->new;

$mw->Button(-text => "hello", -command => sub {print "hello!\n";})->pa
+ck;

my $test = 0;

if ($test == 0) {

    my $answer = $mw->messageBox(-icon => 'question', -message => 'Hel
+lo World!', 
    -title => 'My title', -type => 'Ok');
}

MainLoop;
