Like I stated in my first reply to this thread, we are trying
to compile the source...not to hide it. A compiler is not the
same as an obfuscator.
The main idea (for me) for a Perl compiler is that it enables
you to write Perl programs and enable anyone to run it, regardless
if they installed a Perl interpreter or not (like I did with
pVoice).
Thanks to
OeufMayo and
neophyte my program is now compiled
for the Win32 platform, which simplifies installation enormously
for people who want to
use the application instead of
co-develop it.
