You are making it harder for yourself than you have to. Don't ZIP anything ... pp -o main.exe main.pl should be enough. And if the pp doesn't notice your main.pl uses subroutineX.pl then try pp -o main.exe main.pl subroutine*.pl Jenda ===== [EMAIL PROTECTED] === http://Jenda.Krynicky.cz ===== When it comes to wine, women and song, wizards are allowed to get drunk and croon as much as they like. -- Terry Pratchett in Sourcery -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
