Tk Tile on Windows

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi All,
I was very excited to find the Tile Widget Set
http://tktable.sourceforge.net/tile/index.html

Is this able to run on Windows XP with Activestate Perl?
If so, how do I go about installing?
Are there any examples of its use?
Thanks for any tips in advance. Tk as everyone know is looking rather dated these days. I am excited about any method for writing modern GUI's that will run under Windows. I do not want to use Win32::GUI due to the lack of documentation.
Thanks

Just another note. I have also just come across wxPerl for writing GUI's. This package was easily to install and get running. Look forward to your views on the Tile Widget and thoughts on wxPerl	[reply]

The URL you posted doesn't seem to be working, so here's an alternate (is SF.net changing their URL scheme ?) If your concern w/ Win32::GUI is lack of docs, I fear you'll be likewise disappointed w/ wxPerl. You might look into Tcl::Tk or Tkx to see if they can support Tile yet. There were some recent posts on clp.tk (or maybe it was the maillist ?) about updating Perl/Tk; I know a new patch release has been made available, and Slaven appears to have graciously taken up the cause after Nick's passing.
