List,
If you are really in a hurry and have limited time - Resource Hacker
(http://www.users.on.net/johnson/resourcehacker/) can change the icons (in
Tk.dll). Only problem you have to change the icon every time you want to
Par a new app.
I assume you are looking for a cleaner more long term solution so that Par
works the way it should or is stated to work. I cant help there I am
afraid. I use this when I use PerlApp to create stand-alone apps. I use RH
to hack and change the icons to something I have made custom.
Hope this helps in some way...

I am not sure of what you are asking here. In any case, I went into the
Windows XP environment variables area and created PP_TK_ICONFIX with a
value
of 1.
I have perl v5.8.3
I then used a known good file hello_tk.pl as shown below, with the
resulting
error message. Is this what you are asking for?
>pp -o hello_tk.exe -i hi.ico hello_tk.pl
Can't locate object method "new" via package "Win32::Exe::IconFile" at
C:\Perl\bin\pp line 175.
