You don't need to create code. Instead you can use libglade to create
your form directly from Glade's XML files at run time.

| Package: libgtk2-gladexml-perl
| Description: Perl interface to use user interfaces created with glade-2
|  libgtk2-gladexml-perl allows a Perl developer to use the gladexml part of
|  the libglade library.
|  .
|  Glade is a free user interface builder for Gtk+ and GNOME. After designing
|  a user interface with glade-2 the layout and configuration are saved in an
|  XML file. libglade is a library which knows how to build and hook up the
|  user interface described in the Glade XML file at application run time.
|  .
|  This module even allows developers to load a interface definition into a
|  scalar to customize them just before loading the application itself.
|  .
|  Find out more about GNOME at http://www.gnome.org.
|  .
|  The perl bindings follow the C API very closely, and the C reference
|  documentation should be considered the canonical source:
|  http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/libglade/index.html
|  .
|  This module is part of gtk2-perl.
|  .
|  To discuss gtk2-perl, ask questions and flame/praise the authors,
|  join gtk-perl-list at gnome.org at lists.gnome.org.
|  .
|  Also have a look at the gtk2-perl website and sourceforge project page,
|  http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net
