I realize that Win32::Packer is probably your creation: would you help me to see what I could do with it ?

I would need at least to have perl.exe and wperl.exe available and probably a lot of modules (with XS code in them). The must, at first glance, would be to have it installed directly in the Inkscape directory and to have everything (like perllibs, DLL, etc. relative to the path the executables are running, so no environment variables would be necessary as I cannot act from within Inkscape to do anything before calling the Perl executable wperl.exe...). There would be no perl script to install but just the running Perl environment...

One big problem that comes to my mind is that Inkscape installs itself within the 'Program File' directory which has a space character in its path...

Anyway, I'll setup a Windows VirtualBox (as I'm not a Windows user) and have a try on this soon...

Thanks again
