URL AND EMAIL HOOKS
When setting the website and email hooks for the Gtk2::AboutDialog widget, you should remember that the order is important: you should set the hook functions before setting the website and email URL properties, like this:

  $about_dialog->set_url_hook(\&launch_web_browser);
  $about_dialog->set_website($app_website);

otherwise the AboutDialog will not display the website and the email addresses as clickable.
