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

Hi Jenda,
I learnt that zipping wont help me and i tried the way you specified, like:
pp -o main.exe main.pl subroutine*.pl
But even that did not help me. It creates a EXE file, but when i try using
it all alone without the other supported files, it says that "can't open
subroutine.pl"
This is the problem i encounter.
Thanks and Regards,
Dharshana
