Not that I'm aware of. >Or any other way to create a stand alone program from a perl script so that >a perl interpreter is not required on the system attempting to run it? I think the one that stands the best chance of working (though I have never tried it) is PAR, which in some ways does for Perl what JAR does for Java: http://par.perl.org/ It looks as though it may be possible at least to create a standalone Perl so that you could distribute one or two files instead of a whole Perl installation. If you get it running, let us know about it. -- ________________________________________ Craig A. Berry mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] "... getting out of a sonnet is much more difficult than getting in."
