What should I use to create a Windows GUI?

Question

I'm an experienced UNIX programmer. Now I want to develop a simple Windows application; the programming part would be very easy with almost any tool (it might be C, Perl, or something else). However, I wonder what tool to use in order to have some simple GUI around it?

I've read a little about Perl/TK, but understood that it's too old, and Visual Studio requirement seems a little over-kill.

Answer 1

WxPerl is presently the widely used GUI toolkit in the Perl community.
