Oh so it allows you to create exe files of your code. Great. thanks. Gabor Yes, I have also tried to create a .exe file from an older installation of Padre, but unfortunately I couldn't do it. A .exe file is better because it can be easier associated with different file types, create an association in the Registry and make it appear in the context menu, and much easier to move and use on another computer without needing to have Perl installed. It would be very nice if Padre could be used as a Windows executable (made with PDK or PAR). Unfortunately when I've tried to create an .exe file from it, it gave some errors about some modules that are missing and I don't know why. (But it was an older version of Padre, because as I said, I couldn't install the latest versions of Padre anymore with ActivePerl). OctavianThread Previous | Thread Next
