I'm trying to reach this event object.
Navigating the documentation is beeing a little bit difficult.
Somebody can give me a hint about how can I refer to a not explicitly instantiated event ?

    my $imp_entry     = Gtk2::Entry->new_with_max_length( 6 ) ;
    ...
    $imp_entry->signal_connect( 'scroll-event' => sub {
            # if($imp_entry->scroll-event->direction() eq 'up'){} !?!?
            $imp_entry->set_text( $imp_entry->get_text() + 0.05 ) ;
        } ) ;

I imagine it would be covered in some introductory tutorial (even if it is for the c++)

Luckily http://search.cpan.org/grep?cpanid=TSCH&release=Gtk2-1.245&string=event&i=1&n=1&C=0 showed

110:    # warn Gtk2->get_current_event;
[download]

Which worked for me

#!/usr/bin/perl --
use Gtk2 -init;
# Gtk2->init; works if you didn't use -init on use
my $window = Gtk2::Window->new ('toplevel');
my $button = Gtk2::Button->new ('Quit');
$button->signal_connect (clicked => sub {
    warn "@_";
    warn Gtk2::Gdk::Event->get;
    warn Gtk2->get_current_event;
    Gtk2->main_quit
});
$window->add ($button);
$window->show_all;
Gtk2->main;
