You can do it without freestanding mode and have a nice dll around 30k.
I didn't know it could make a DLL. I tried PerlApp and saw it make EXE's.

Yea, ship the perl.dll separatly. It's no worse than VisualBasic with it's huge DLL. Or rather, ship them together but install them as separate parts, installing or updating the DLL as needed, and installing the bundled component.

By the way, do you think anyone would be interested in an Inline::WSH module? .
I have no idea. Why would anyone need another scripting language when writing in Perl? Writing someting in C I can see the need for, but Java or Basic?

But here's a novel use: spin off objects as servers to do your multithreading needs.
