in reply to Perl TK simple question

There are many ways you can do that, Perl Tk has different geometry (ex. pack, grid, place...) managers. To get a better control while positioning widgets you can:

#here are some of the options you can specify to pack. #learn about the different arguments they take.. #general explanatory non-functional code... $emailLab=$mw->label->pack(-anchor=>'',-ipadx=>'', -ipady=>'',-expand=>'', -fill=>'', -padx=>'', -pady=>'' );
#using frame widgets, general explanatory non-functional code use Tk; $main=MainWindow->new; $frame=$main->Frame; $frame->pack(pack options) or $frame->place(options); $frame->Label()->pack(); MainLoop;
I would strongly advice you to do the following:
  1. check the Tk documentation through "perldoc Tk"
  2. run the Tk command "widget" from your console to see more examples.
  3. Check Geometry Management
