yes it is, but it is somewhat incomplete and it is no where near VC++..... like right click menus to alter options ,signals, and callbacks to menus are missing in the gui designer..... and it just produces boilerplate code with scalar and subroutines automatically named to non-descript things like $ad55677 or sub 12341234123, IIRC ..... so when you want to do something fancy, which requires manually digging into the code, it becomes impossible.

....that is why it pays to read the perl-gtk2 tutorial and learn the simple procedures for setting up your basic windows.

i was just trying to make the point that the allure of Wx, to the newbies out there, is that they can setup basic windows on the screen, with it's gui designer...... but it hampers you in the long run...... except for simple apps......its just my opinion that writing from scratch will give you more command over the app, and prevent many problems by more descriptive variable and subroutine names.
