    Why would Par::Packer mess with the Perl-Tk server() function output?

    Besides a quick grep through the Par::Packer source does not reveal a matching baked in string.

    And I don't want to use the Win32 module because the program is supposed to run on Linux too, the PerlTk server() function is platform independent.
      How does tk generate that string(source)? It uses some %env or some exe property... Thats all par could possibly mess with as is its job... Unless it comes from windir dll which shouldnt have been ppacked...
