After building a standalone of a fairly large DBI+Tk app (resulting .exe is 5.7 MBytes), the first execution is pretty lengthy. Is there anyway to open a splash screen for that initial load ? I realize you need Perl plus some GUI modules loaded before PAR could even try to run a BEGIN script, but is there any way to order the unpacking so the modules needed for a simple splashscreen get unpacked first, then display the splash while the remaining unpack/compile operations proceed ?
Guess I'll nose around the source and see if its even feasible.
