"If i use LWP::Simple will it still work on a machine that doesn’t have perl installed?"I don't know about this specific module, although it
*should* work just fine, at least with
ActiveState's
PerlAppI have had very good luck with
Net::Syslog,
Net::Ping,
Net::Telnet,
Getopt::Long, and several other modules when "compiling" (probably better stated as Packaging) with
PerlApp.
I have stated before, and will reiterate now, that
ActiveState's
PerlApp is well worth the money of the
Perl Dev Kit if you are doing many small apps for Win32 systems that will be distributed to many people. Unix's have the advantage of having Perl "native" (most of the time) and that way as long as you package the modules with the script you should be OK (obviously it would still need to be tested :), but for Win32, go with
PerlApp for wide distribution.
"Nothing is sure but death and taxes" I say combine the two and its death to all taxes!
