Prima is an extensible Perl toolkit for multi-platform GUI development. Platforms supported include Linux, Windows NT/9x/2K, OS/2 and UNIX/X11 workstations (FreeBSD, IRIX, SunOS, Solaris and others).
The toolkit contains a rich set of standard widgets and has emphasis on 2D image processing tasks. A Perl program using PRIMA looks and behaves identically on X, Win32 and OS/2 PM.
Prima project includes a visual builder and a graphic POD viewer.
Building:
A Unpack it somewhere. Use
$ tar xzf Prima.tar.gz
on systems with GNU tar, and
$ gzip -cd Prima.tar.gz | tar xf -
on other systems.
cd to Prima directory.
Type perl Makefile.PL
If everything goes well, type make
If everything goes well (previous step is likely to take several minutes), you can, if you wish, type make test and make install. You can also try PRIMA without making install; in this case it is required to set your PERL5LIB environment variable to point to Prima directory.
Try to run samples provided with the package. They are located in the examples subdirectory. Run them as perl examples/filename.pl.
