There is something I am missing I believe I have finally got some code to work as far as supplying the gui and text box with submit button and i have verified the input and everything is getting stored to the $text variable. But there is no more processing of teh remainder of the code which if i comment the block out it will process the remainder of teh code but I HAVE to have stdin with a gui. below is my current code after i hit submit there is no more processing of remaining code. 

my $mw = MainWindow->new;
    my $text;

    $mw->Label(
        -text => "Enter password:"
    )->pack();

    $mw->Entry(
        -textvariable => \$text
    )->pack();

    $mw->Button(
        -text => "Submit",
        -command => sub {exit}
    )->pack();

    MainLoop;
