I was under the impression that there was a way to make perlcc generate C code that i could then cross-compile with gcc. I can also use my windows box to do a simple compile of the c-code.

I guess I will just get my friends to get off their lazy butts and install activePerl. This was more of an experiment then a requirement anyway.

Thanks for the help.

P.S. I did test out pp, and it worked fine. A bit slower then the regular perl execution.
