Could it be possible to set up a glue package that would NOT allow the editing of a Perl script- it would simply run it (perhaps the script could even be saved in a compiled format similar to applescript, although that's a little far out) and then quit? It would probably be a LOT smaller than a Perl app, run without any other library files needed (all requires or 'use's would be in the file), and essentially be a true standalone. I realize that this is asking a lot, but it would be a terriffic thing to be able to do. -Seraph ***** Want to unsubscribe from this list? ***** Send mail with body "unsubscribe" to mac-perl-request@iis.ee.ethz.ch
