Hi
I agreed Perl is human readable - for that I should open it in my VI editor
- but am not able  to at the same time the program is working fine !

This script are not written / made executable / packed byme - am just
suppose to use it and at this point of time i need to edit to change some
parameters - but am nt able to open it -  thats the problem -

if you want i can send a sample program --
SK



No.

Perl (not PERL) is human readable. It is a script, not an executable.

You are saying you have something that was at one time a Perl script but
you give no indication what software mangled it. Could you send the top
ten lines?


Some programs that like to mangle Perl:

find to Perl
awk to Perl
sed to Perl
grep to Perl # tho slower than grep


BTW, there is no such thing as a decompiler. At best you may find a
disassembler. That is a program that takes a binary and produces the
assembler code from it.
