GhostWheel has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Greetings, monks!

I've got a problem converting a perl script into an .exe file. I've tried perl2exe, but while it compiles the script and makes an .exe, the file crashes as soon as I run it. Are there any other ways to make the script into an executable? Thanks a lot.

    it is a written program can covert the pl file to exe file.
    and it is also avilable on perl development kit.

    What's in your script? If it's a die statement, for instance... well, you know what I mean.
