PerlApp is a utility included in Perl Dev Kit (PDK), a commercial or 21-day free trial version of which can be downloaded here at www.activestate.com/perl-dev-kit. I've also tried Cava Packager, the author of which provides a fully working free-of-charge non-commericial licence, and the resulting executable can also produce a readable text file. Cava Packager can be downloaded here at www.cava.co.uk/download.html. For your reference, my testing environment is as follows: Windows XP SP3 ActiveState Perl 5.10.0 Par::Packer 1.002 PerlAPP 8.1 Cava Packager 2.0.48.443 | [reply] |
Thank you very very very very much (no copy pasting !).
This was by far the most effort invested, thought out, informative, clear and practical reply I ever got about perl.
I got the cava (long and painful install but it's over now), and it works (finally).
Not sure how my 45.8KB file became so many MB-s ^^.
It probably includes some unnecessary data, but I can't figure it out yet.
(maybe I'll post this as another question)
But the most important thing is that it finally works (thx again).
