Documentation on Tcl::Tk should be improved, may be I'll improve it someday. But essentially it should refer reader to Tcl/Tk documentation, where widget behaviours and parameters are described. (I did wiki for Tcl::Tk generally for adding documentation by myself at http://www.vkonovalov.ru/cgi-bin/perl-tcltk-wiki.cgi, there are some good examples on code and screenshots)

But perl/Tk syntax, while recognized to be smart and good, it is too noisy (compared to Tcl/Tk), there are just too many '(' and ',' and '=>'.

My approach is in the middle. I create widgets and layout with Tcl/Tk and then use perl/Tk syntax to manage existing widgets, similar to http://www.vkonovalov.ru/vtcl-usage/Using_vtcl_for_creating_Tcl-Tk_GUI_for_Perl.html

May be best choice for you could be Tkx? Look at http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/Tkx-1.04/Tkx/Tutorial.pod. Documentation is good, and author deserves deepest respect, so you'll be on the good way.

As for alternate packager - I'll add it to CPAN, sooner or later :)
