Example

useGtk2'-init';$window=Gtk2::Window->new('toplevel');$window->set_title("Hello World!");$button=Gtk2::Button->new("Press me");$button->signal_connect(clicked=>sub{print"Hello again - the button was pressed\n";});$window->add($button);$window->show_all;Gtk2->main;0;

The sample program creates a GTK Window titled "Hello World!". The window contains a Button labelled "Press me." When the button is pressed, the message "Hello again - the button was pressed" is displayed on the console via the callback inside the anonymous subroutine connected to the "clicked" signal.
