| I too have found that PAR can miss some modules. I ended up creating a list of required XS modules and all of my application modules explicitly.

Some additional notes on installing:
- Ensure that there is no wxwin environment variable set pointing to an older or 32-bit version of wxWidgets (e.g., leftover from citrus_perl)- If you have gcc installed somewhere else, change the path to Strawberry\c\bin before installing - If LWP::Protocol::https fails download the two tar files and install them from a local directory - Building and testing doesn't show progress, and appears to only use a single CPU, so it takes a *long* time with no indication that progress is being made.

Thank you so much to Johan, I got going with the "quick start" cpanm commands.
Yes, they took a while to run, but necessarily so.
Feedback: - I installed Wx::Demo, and it worked - wxperl_demo.pl ran as soon as I tried it, I didn't need to mess with any paths or deal with icon errors
- I got wxGlade 1.1.0 running, but not with Python 3.13 (some kind of WindowIterator error, idk); I had to use the latest Python 3.12
- a simple test "wxglade_out.pl" ran just fine also
- wxpar will generate an EXE, but see below for the problem description
Questions: I figured out wxpar is available via Wx::Perl::Packager, so I installed that - no problems there. My problem comes from the executable that results from wxpar. Do any of the following issues sounds familiar? - I have to include Wx:: modules explicitly, e.g., wxGlade wants to use EXPORTER tags; but when I run the .exe created by wxpar, it complains about missing things like Wx::DND, Wx::FS, etc. Is it just a known thing to have to explicitly declare modules when packaging up to an EXE?
- After working through the above issue, the .exe I create will run but it does nothing visible in STDOUT or in the GUI. Using the "--gui" option will cause a process tab to appear in the bottom task bar, but then it also goes away without showing anything.
Thanks again, looking forward to getting these issues resolved. In the meantime, I will be working on some test applications on the Windows set up so I build up to creating what I actually have in mind.
Cheers,
Brett
