I've kind of shifted focus to Gambas (a sort of VB-like thing, GPL) 
over the last year or two for purposes of RAD.  Lately I've been 
thinking of porting my PerlQt apps to Gambas since version 2 will be 
toolkit-agnostic (version 1 is Qt-based, but there's a mostly working 
Gtk binding in the version 2 betas) and I have hope that it'll 
eventually work under Windows without needing Cygwin or X.

I don't mean to belittle all the work that's gone into PerlQt, because 
I have always found Qt Designer + perlqt to work great and easier, 
for me at least, than GLADE + perl/gtk.  I certainly prefer perl over 
BASIC, even as non-BASIC-like a dialect as Gambas uses.  But a 
compile/run/debug cycle that consists of pressing F5 is kinda hard to 
argue with.
