in reply to pp with gui

Use the -x flag (note, lowercase) when calling pp. See Problem with getSaveFile in 'pp'-mode. Consider also using the verbose flag when calling pp and actually unpacking your executable (you can simply unzip it) to ensure all prerequisites are packaged.

    I entered the pp command with the -x option.

    pp -x --gui -o gui1.exe gui1.pl

    It gets to this point and brings up the text box.

    pp: Packing gui1.pl

    It hangs until I click on the text box and then the compile completes.

    The resulting .exe still does nothing.

    --verbose gives me a lot of output but no errors.

    Any ideas?
