It's not possible to create a single stand alone exe for multiple platforms. This is covered in the FAQ. You may have luck creating a PAR package if your script is pure perl, though I've no experience of doing this. Martin	[reply]

I just want the executable for all the Linux machines.	[reply]

Then the obvious thing to do would be to package your application on Linux using pp.	[reply]

This is impossible. With luck, you can get an executable that works for some Linux machines. But you won't get a single executable that runs on all Linux machines. See also Re^3: perl pp packging problem. Distribute the perl source.
