Perl/Tk for Mac?

Joe,
I think you misunderstand what I'm trying to do. I know I can run
the PERL script itself on all the platforms, including Macintosh (via
MacPerl). The problem is that command-line things are generally
too complex and/or too difficult to remember. I need to put a GUI
front end on the script. Perl/Tk would be perfect for that. I can do
it easily enough on Windows and UNIX. Mac is apparently without
a Perl/Tk port.
Embedding this in a Mac-only editor wouldn't be of much use. We
have access to a Mac UI library, and to a Win32 UI library. There
are lots of X-based UNIX UI libraries, too. I would like to have this
thing be able to run anywhere, though.
Hmmmmm... I just realized out how to achieve platform neutrality,
sans Tk. It's obvious -- turn the script into a CGI!
That might just do the trick, in the short run...
