Re^2: Any GUI apps for Win32 or OSX implemented entirely in Perl

I understand that GUI tookit is not part of a language. I was writing GtkPerl apps (commercial) for 3 years or more. I was writing Win32::GUI apps (commercial) too. I have no problems bundling perl interpreter and all necessary perl modules (including GUI toolkit-related) for each OS.

I just wish to know whether anybody (except me) wrote any commercial GUI apps for windows that are written entirely in Perl (or apps that are written in C/C++ but embed Perl interpreter). Same for OSX.

So, can anybody point me some apps on the market?
Thanks again!

I've written ones for work, but only internal tools. They work well though. I also wrote a few you can download on my website. I compiled win32 binaries for them, but the scripts are also included (they may require a few tweaks to run, but nothing major. The scripts were written for perl2exe and may have a few hard coded paths that perl2exe needed to compile). All of my perl GUI apps are written using Tk. I've recently had some problems running Tk at all on OSX.

I was trying to say that the lack of a consistent perl compatible GUI toolkit on win32 makes programmers refrain from writing win32 GUI applications in perl. The perl related tools and IDEs from Activestate, the Perl Dev Kit and Perl Studio, PerlNET, etc have a large perl code base. A search lists quite a few other commercial and freeware GUI apps written in perl/mostly TK. `perl -e '$,=$",$_=(split/\W/,$^X)[y[eval]]]+--$_],print+just,another,split,hack'er`	[reply] [d/l]
