Glade!  Eric Anderson threw together a quick little program using Glade,
then put it up on SourceForge.  IMHO, it's a GREAT tutorial for how to
create a basic app UI for X.

Basically, there's a library that allows your Perl program to use the
direct output of Glade, without worrying about re-compiling it, so you
get a presentation layer that's less depoendent upon your bus. logic...
a good thing.

For details, take a look at Bill Manager on sf.net.  The author is Eric
Anderson.  Eric, you here?  did I represent correctly?
