I have (I think) the program you're looking for, however all the one I have
does is copy the required libraries for that standalone into it for you- it
still builds a full size standalone, which is as big as the MacPerl
application itself. If you wanted more than one of these files on a system,
it'd be smaller (I think...) to just install MacPerl and save the files as
droplets or something. If they were saved as droplets, a user could drop
the word file onto the standalone, and it'd read that file in and run with
it (if that's what you programmed it to do).

If that's what you want, let me know, and I'll send it off.
