Just a thought, but try googling "graphics for perl". I got over 4.2 million results.

There has certainly got to be some perl modules you can import to give you graphics capability. Even windows with buttons and all. It would be useless otherwise.

The language I use, XBasic, has built in functions for displaying windows and drawing graphics. But even that is limited. The real meat is in 3D graphics. I've dabbled in OpenGL a bit, but it takes serious programming - mainly being able to do system calls to the windows kernel and other libraries. Oh, and those libraries are in C, yet I can call them.

Not intending to tout XB over PERL, just pointing out there is a way to do what you need. It just might involve a bit of research and learning curve.

It also helps when you find the right style of tutorial that fits your style of thinking. For the PERL I've learned so far, I tried out a couple of different online books, but not all made sense to me. One in particular did and got me far.... so far.
