Re: Can windows do this?

ActiveState also provides something called pl2bat which makes a Perl script runnable. If you search in the recent messages you should turn it up.

Update:Check out this node for more information. (That'll teach me to post before I'm ready.)

A couple of minor notes. First, ActiveState gets pl2bat with the Perl source code and distributes it the same as everyone else who distributes Perl. Second, the node you link to links to some really old documentation for pl2bat. Not even www.perldoc.com includes the documentation for pl2bat so I was forced to paste more up-to-date docs into a node here (and I linked to that elsewhere in this thread). The newer docs include a lot more information about the motivations for and alternatives to pl2bat. - tye (but my friends call me "Tye")	[reply]
