after fixing two really embarassing bugs and some more cleanup,
i'm sending attached version 0.1.1 of Dock.pm. Anyone trying to
test it, please use this one, along with the Entry.pm from the
first post. i'm sorry about it, but the original version was really
seriously broken.
it will now make its dir for desktop files correctly (oops), so the
keep function has a chance of working. even more importantly, it will
not try to start two copies of each program - whew!

attached are two files (at v0.1) for your review. they need to be put in
PerlPanel/lib/PerlPanel/Applet/Dock.pm
and PerlPanel/lib/Desktop/Entry.pm
to get things working.
the dock is a launcher & taskbar combination. for it to work, you need
class group support in Gnome2::Wnck
(i think this means you need gnome2.6 at least). it strives to be
useful, compact and simple to use.
it creates its icons in ~/.perlpanel/dock/
the Desktop::Entry is a new module used by the dock and hopes to become
a general class for handling the desktop entry standard files. it's not
even pretending to be very compliant yet. but maybe some other applets
might benefit from it already.
i'd be happy to hear your reactions and get these files distributed
with perlpanel. there is a lot still to be done for them so anyone
interested
in improving is very welcome!
