Re^2: I prefer not to run the latest version of Perl because:

I'm waiting for "perl2exe" to be made available...

I fiddled with a version of that a very long time ago and had completely forgotten about it!
Thanks for the reminder...

Although, if it isn't very up to date then perhaps I shouldn't do too much with the reminder.

Agreed. "perl2exe" is matched to specific versions of Perl. The latest Perl version that perl2exe supports is 5.30.x. "It's not how hard you work, it's how much you get done."	[reply]

I'm curious as to what features of the proprietary perl2exe you need, and wonder if they're not covered by the alternatives.	[reply]

I’ve tried “pp” and it did not produce a working executable. I use a number of Tk modules and other assorted modules and it became increasingly frustrating trying to mail down the culprit. “perl2exe” pretty much just works right out of the box, which leaves me free to concentrate on the programming projects at hand.
