The highlighted row is the "selected" row.  Moving the highlight is  
"changing the selection".  Therefore (ahem) the signal you want is  
"changed" on the treeview's selection, which is a Gtk2::TreeSelection.

    $treeview->get_selection->signal_connect (changed => sub {
        my ($selection) = @_;
        # assuming you are in single or browse mode -- multisel is a  
bit different.
        my ($model, $iter) = $selection->get_selected;
        print "new selection is ".join(", ", $model->get ($iter))."\n";
    });

Actually, row-activated is emitted for any form of activation of a  
row --- double-click with the mouse, or pressing the Enter or Space  
keys.
