Hi, May I know the reason behind to hide the script. I would like to bring few points to your note, 1) If you have a some logic which you see that can be patented (or) protected then you can hide it, till you get patent registered. 2) If the script has some algorithm, which you see it perform better than your competitor and afraid that competitor copies your code if you release the script and makes business out of it, then you can do it. 3) If the script has some portion of code, which does some mail operation, then you can protect it so that email id can`t be tampered. So, if your script has regular code then you no need to protect it. Ok, Coming to answer your question. I don`t know how to hide in perl, where as I have done it in xml file contents using encryption and decryption. Hope if you search the same with perl you may get some interesting info in google. Happy coding.
