Sure, except... 1) You lose your readable source code (discussions of B::Deparse as a viable alternative > /dev/null) 2) You have to make provisions to distribute your documentation seperately. 3) It makes it harder to bundle non-Perl things, like configuration files, images, sound files, etc... If you want to send those along with the bytecode you windup needing a par-style utility anyway. 4) What Brenden said 5) Do YOU have a stable bytecode compiler?? I don't. Perhaps it wasn't clear, I don't mean to have par as part of 6.0, I mean to have it out, like, maybe next month if I decide to work on it. -- Michael G.
