in reply to win32::gui problem?

As it stands, I don't think you can. Your should try your luck at the perl-win32-gui-users mailing list.

Wx, Tk, and Prima should be able to deal with unicode (that is if your perl and system can)

I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).
