I haven't installed it yet but this is from the readme file:

About This Program
Perl2Exe is a command line utility for converting Perl scripts to executable
files.
This allows you to create stand alone programs in perl that do not require
the perl interpreter. You can also ship the executable file without having to
ship your perl source code.
Perl2Exe also allows you to create no-console programs using Tk.
Perl2Exe for Unix can generate executables for supported Unix machines.
Perl2Exe for Unix can also be used from a Win32 host to generate executables
for a Unix target host.
This document covers all versions of Perl2Exe up to V5.xx. Where there are
differences between versions, the differences are noted in the text.Usage:
perl2exe myscript.pl
This will convert a script named myscript.pl to myscript.exe.
