Running Gtk2-Perl from a C program

[muppet <scott asofyet org>]

12:49AM <ben> I want to figure out a way to run perl code from a GTK+ C 
application.
12:50AM <ben> so...  I can do things like make signal handlers...  in 
perl...
12:51AM <ben> so most code would be written in C, but some could be 
handled by perl code...
12:52AM <ben> I also want to discuss how practical that would be
12:52AM <ben> I know Gimp does it.  as a way to allow users to make 
extensions.
12:53AM <ben> that interface seems a little convoluted.  it seems like 
something
 simpler should be possible

This thread talks about embedding Gtk2-Perl in a C program (a gmodule, 
actually), points to GAIM's implementation, and even includes a little 
example:

(By the way, if the IRC channel seems a little dead when you ask your 
question, just hang out and wait.  We're in lots of different time 
zones, so hours may pass, but most likely someone will see your 
question and answer it.)
