http://search.cpan.org/~nwclark/perl-5.8.9/utils/perlcc.PL Having never used it on Windows (and not having an easily accessible Windows box right now), I would not know how well it works on that platform, though. There are commercial alternatives (such as perl2exe, http://www.indigostar.com/perl2exe.htm) which supposedly support Win32 and Linux, but I have not used them and cannot comment on their efficiency. -- Ulisses Montenegro <ulisses.montene...@cesar.org.br> Engenheiro de Sistemas Centro de Estudos e Sistemas Avançados do Recife http://www.cesar.org.br/ _______________________________________________ uClinux-dev mailing list uClinux-dev@uclinux.org http://mailman.uclinux.org/mailman/listinfo/uclinux-dev This message was resent by uclinux-dev@uclinux.org To unsubscribe see: http://mailman.uclinux.org/mailman/options/uclinux-dev
