[MacPerl] ExtractModules.pl -> RuntimeBuilder.pl

[Michael Ziege <ziege@ito.umnw.ethz.ch>]

Some time ago i posted a little utility called ExtractModules wich packed
all needed modules into the resource fork of a runtime script, enabling it
to run on a target machine which doesn't have MacPerl installed. That
worked fine with scripts which didn't make use of dynamically loaded shared
libraries. But as   all of the toolbox modules use shared libraries and
people are more often writing scripts with GUI for target machines without
MacPerl installed i decided to post a successor of ExtractModules called
RuntimeBuilder. It's a dropplet which will save the dropped Perl script as
runtime version and saves all needed modules in it's resource fork and all
needed shared libs in a folder along the same path; together it's all you
need for a standalone application.
I didn't test it too long, but i'm using it often and it works; if it
doesn't for you, give me feedback. Enjoy.
Michael
