I would like to "shrink-wrap" a simple perl utility to install on a
client PC. preferably something they can run without installing perl.
The intent is not to protect source from reverse engineering, but just
to simplify installation and execution by a user that doesnt need
*all* of perl.
The specific application will be to create a hardwired little script
to FTP a couple files from a remote webserver, to a local PC, just to
back up a couple files without them having to know anything about FTP.
The plan would be to have the Windows task manager fire up the script
nightly, like a cron job.
any ideas on free/cheap software to allow my to "compile" a simple
script into something that can be easily installed and executed in
Windows on a PC without installing Perl?
thanks,
