But anyway, a perl program can be made to be an executable that doesn't need perl to run it. Download Active State Perl Developer Kit from www.activestate.com for this. The file is not compiled, but the perl interpreter is included in the executable file with the perl program, and the other libraries. There is a program named perlcc that should compile a perl program, but it doesn't work. ----- Original Message ----- From: "essential quint" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, September 17, 2003 10:24 AM Subject: Capturing At Compile Time > Greets, > > Awhile back I downloaded a script that was "protected" before purchase. > When I opened it to look at the code the script was in binary format, not > perl's pre-interpreted language, so I think they must have captured it at > compile time.
