Running win32 perl under wine with win32 PAR? I do not think he wants to go there. First off, wine doesn't work half the time, second off...this is a fairly hackish solution. Basically what the question-poster needs to know is that *NIX developers really have no interest in making cross compilers that target their arch-nemesis of an operating system. You can do cool things like cross-compile for AMD64 or IA64 on IA32, but you can't target foreign OS's (usually). Similarly, I don't think there are any win32 compilers that create Linux apps. The closest 'foreign' cross compiler I can think of is Watcom/OpenWatcom, which targets OS/2, Netware, DOS, and Win32 when running from Win32. Does this help with Perl? No. Are all of these OS's above really odd? Yes. The only workable answer I can think of -- There may be ways to do this with VMware. VMWare would not be free, but it would allow you to install Windows on a Linux box and make it "believe". My suggestion -- find the cheapest computer you can find, and get it to run Windows for you.
