I was trying to say that the lack of a consistent perl compatible GUI toolkit on win32 makes programmers refrain from writing win32 GUI applications in perl.

The perl related tools and IDEs from Activestate, the Perl Dev Kit and Perl Studio, PerlNET, etc have a large perl code base.

A search lists quite a few other commercial and freeware GUI apps written in perl/mostly TK.

perl -e '$,=$",$_=(split/\W/,$^X)[y[eval]]]+--$_],print+just,another,split,hack'er
