May I recommend that it is often easier to deliver one tarball of many things - with an 'installer' - than it is to try to make all of the 'stuff' fit into one application executable file. In the long run the code maintenance issues will get Most Harry. you might want to look at the idea of ExtUtils::MakeMaker to do your 'packaging' for you so that all the end user need do is perl *.PL make make test make install and then not have to worry about the 'converge' to one piece of code. if you look at the h2xs code you will find that with just a bit of tweeking you can put all of your basic modules in 'deliverable' packages - and then add some glue to have your tk and just perl executables wrapped into the <foo>-<version>.tar.gz single deliverable. just an alternative strategy to consider. ciao drieux --- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
