in reply to Re^7: print-screen without non-core modules ?
in thread print-screen without non-core modules ?

umm.. ok
Than please tell me exactly (line by line) what should I type ?
Please be explicit (for example exactly where does a new line is entered).
I can't figure it out from the cpan page (nearly zero experience with the command line).
Thx

      This one did run the program right, but as a pl file,
      within the terminal in which the pp -x foo.pl was entered.
      No exe file was created nor edited in the process.
      Also tried the regular pp foo.pl line before and after the pp -x foo.pl (seperated experiments) to confirm.
      Also tried (all) the above scenarios both with an existing exe and without (just in case), still nothing.
      This is so frustrating, what am I doing wrong ?

      I sorry if I'm missing something that seems trivial to more experienced programers,
      resulting in people feeling I'm wasting their time,
      but I'm really trying here and have no where else to ask (please have a little patience, and go easy with the "--" ^^).

      I've tried Cava Packager in the past but in seems extremely complicated and time consuming to master,
      and that's without considering the exe result is (if I remember correctly) about 200 times the pl's size.

        "without considering the exe result is (if I remember correctly) about 200 times the pl's size.

        Did you read the links I provided in Re^5: print-screen without non-core modules ? explaining this? If so what part of this don't you understand? Ovbiously creating a package based on your code with all of the dependant modules, executables and libraries will be much larger than a few lines of perl code.

        No exe file was created nor edited in the process.

        I find that hard to believe. At the very least, if no actual files were created, PAR/pp would have given you an error message. Turn on debugging.

        This is so frustrating, what am I doing wrong ?

        I really don't know, you're not giving me much to work with.

        without considering the exe result is (if I remember correctly) about 200 times the pl's size.

        How is that important (or different from PAR)?
