Making a .exe file but keeping lib support

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

Hi monks ,
Please tell me how can I make a script to a .EXE file . I could do that using perlcc , but if i try to do the same thing on a program that uses WWW::Mechanize , it refuses to compile . Can you tell me how to do it?
Thanks !

See PAR::Tutorial: pp for an adequate solution. And don't forget to do the Super Search as ikegami suggested.	[reply]

Please do a Super Search. This is a FAQ. Basically, `perlcc` is broken, unsupported and obsolete (won't be in Perl 5.10). PAR seems to be the tool to use.	[reply] [d/l]

ikegami, ...(won't be in Perl 5.10). I believe your intent is to say `perlcc` won't be present in Perl 5.10. Some may read the statement with ambiguity and think you meant it won't be broken, unsupported and obsolete in 5.10. Cheers - L~R	[reply] [d/l]
