Tk::ExecuteCommand is very configurable. The main widgets are all advertised, meaning you can access them directly. But here is the basic idea. 
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use Tk;
use Tk::ExecuteCommand;

my $top = MainWindow->new;

my $menu = $top->Menu( -type => 'menubar' );

$top->configure( -menu => $menu );

$menu->Cascade(
    -label     => '~Selections',
    -tearoff   => 1,
    -menuitems => [
        [
            Button => 'dir',
            -command => [ \&printchoice, 'dir' ]
        ],
        [
            Button => 'time',
            -command => [ \&printchoice, 'time' ]
        ],
        [
            Button => 'ls',
            -command => [ \&printchoice, 'ls' ]
        ],
        
        ],
);

  my $ec = $top->ExecuteCommand(
    -command    => '',
    -entryWidth => 50,
    -height     => 10,
    -label      => '',
    -text       => 'Execute',
   )->pack;

MainLoop;

sub printchoice {
    my $choice = shift;
    print $choice, "\n";

 $ec->configure( -command => $choice );

 $ec->execute_command;
 $ec->bell;
 $ec->update;

}
