You asked about Perl2Exe . You're going to kick yourself. Try
www.perl2exe.com .
But first make sure you really *want* to do this. Ask yourself
why you need to convert to an executable [more than just using the
pl2bat.bat program which comes with ActiveState]. Then you'll
want to type this at a command prompt:
perldoc -q compile
One of the middle FAQs there will tell you some of the drawbacks.
You won't save on most of the places you expect to save. Trying
to reduce startup time? It won't do that. Trying to speed things
up? It probably won't do that either - not significantly.
Trying to reduce space? It *really* won't do that. Each executable
is likely to come out over a meg - maybe well over. Trying to keep
bad people from stealing or hacking your code? It won't do that
either. Sorry.
