great.. you are right, that's exactly what I'm looking for.. Now suppose that I want to install a standalone executable such that it is integrated into the start menu, and also runs as part of the startup sequence on any machine that it is installed on... anything to help there, or do I need to write to the registry myself? Are there any perl based installers out there, anyways?
