Wise Monks,

I am in need of your help! I am looking for a RAD that will help me design (and output code for) a perl program.

I've looked into several already and I've been very confused by them (I've never done any gui programming before)

I'm not looking for much, just a few text fields, some radio buttons and a tree/listview.

I've read a bunch of documentation for different gui implementations and although I would like it to look native on win32 I've decided if I can find a RAD I like for TK I'll go ahead and use it. I'm not concerned about cross platform compatibility but I'll consider it a bonus if it runs on anything other then win32.
I will say however that I didn't like the wxPerl syntax at all...

I guess what I'm looking for is a RAD that will allow me to drag some controls onto a blank window, position them like I want them and spit out the code that will generate that nice looking window and maybe give me a start on where to add my event handlers.

Any recommendations are helpful. Thanks!

-Bob
