I thought, one can mix the placers pack() and Tk::grid, but it fails for
me.

I need some kind of a 2 x 2 table (with explanations) on top, and a
editable text area beneath.

I tried it with:

  $A->title('address book');

  $label = $A->Label(-text => "Address book format:");
  Tk::grid($label, -row => 0, -column => 0);

  $label = $A->Label(-text => "ALIAS E-MAIL-ADDRESS");
  Tk::grid($label, -row => 0, -column => 1);

  $label = $A->Label(-text => "Example:");
  Tk::grid($label, -row => 1, -column => 0);

  $label = $A->Label(-text => "framstag framstag\@rus.uni-stuttgart..de", -relief => 'sunken');
  Tk::grid($label, -row => 1, -column => 1);

  $A->gridRowconfigure(1, -weight => 1);

  $t = $A->Scrolled('Text',qw(-relief sunken -height 30));
  $t->pack(qw(-expand yes -fill both));

Result is a window without content.
Without the last line, the 2 x 2 table is shown correctly.

Such mix of geometry managers is impossible;
You can apply "grid" with "columnspan":

Tk::grid($t, -row => 2, -column => 0, -columnspan => 2);
