Hi Monks , this might sounds like a stupid question but Is it possible to create an icon on your disktop which will call your perl script . I am writting a small script for a user who dosn't know what is command line mean . so I want him to click on the icon instead of the command line call. thanks .

That depends on the kind of desktop that they use. Windows, KDE, Gnome and Mac OS all have different kinds of icon shortcut solutions.

You could of course just associate .pl to be run by perl or create a real executable using PAR.
