in reply to Perl to executable without releasing source code?

Are you sure you are using pp correctly?

For me, pp -o hello.exe hello.pl created a stand-alone executable that runs on other PCs that do not have Perl installed and without needing hello.pl

(for non MS Windows, use pp -o hello hello.pl)

    Just figured out that it's not because of the .pl file, it's the 'icons' folder that I added in when compiling the .exe file (pp -a "icons" ...). The executable won't run without the icon folder.
