Well well, interesting.. didn't know about those header files with the standard installable!

Running like "start tktest.pl" with this code:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use Tk;

my $mw = MainWindow->new;

#centers window
CenterWindow($mw, 300, 200);
MainLoop;

sub CenterWindow {
    my($window, $width, $height) = @_;
    #$window->idletasks;
    $width  = $window->reqwidth  unless $width;
    $height = $window->reqheight unless $height;

    my $x = int(($window->screenwidth  / 2) - ($width  / 2));
    my $y = int(($window->screenheight / 2) - ($height / 2));

    $window->geometry("=${width}x${height}+${x}+${y}");
}

displays the terminal aswell. I just unzipped your package and ran this. Else I love this solution! :)

And now I compiled but linking seems to give me:
