in thread How do you exit PERL TK menu without exiting the script too ?

Have Submit set a "success" flag, destroy the main window, then return. Complete the processing in the main line following MainLoop if the success flag is set:

...

my $ok = 0;

MainLoop;

print "Script continues after mainloop terminated\n";
print "Do ok stuff\n" if $ok;

sub Submit {
   $ok = 1;
   $main->destroy;
}
