gtk2-perl is the collective name for a set of perl bindings for Gtk+ 2.x and various related libraries. These modules make it easy to write Gtk and Gnome applications using a natural, perlish, object-oriented syntax.

Interesting to note that ExtremeProgramming has emerged as a methodology for programming; it appears to be based in trial and error programming! Without tests and refactoring, it is not workable at all. So why not design first, write tests to that design, then program, test, perform refactoring and iterate? That's exactly what ExtremeProgramming is, friend. Just do it in tiny increments. "The differences between XP and trial-and-error are basically two-fold: first, you solve each error as it comes up, so that it doesn't compound with later errors. And second, you meant to do it that way in the first place, rather than being forced to come back and deal with unforeseen complications.

Perl is a useful language for working on Linux and other flavours of UNIX as well as on many other platforms where it is available (including the Palm Pilot ;-)). Perl is useful for text processing and generation, GUI programming, system administration, programming for the Web, working with databases, and most other things which are not very time sensitive.

Our goal is not to cover everything in Perl, or make you an expert. What we've found, though, is that many Perl programmers don't know what they don't know. Perl101.org hopes to change that.
