Recently I lost the perl source to some complicated scripts I wrote. I have a backup but it doesn't include several months of sporadic changes and bug fixes that would take me a long time to rewrite. Now there are indications that further changes are required and I am looking for a way to get back my source as quickly as possible without forcing users through a rewrite/test/fix cycle. I also have the working perlapp compiled executables that were compiled with perlapp 7.x (I think 7.3 but not completely sure). I found on Perl Monks a sample script that would retrieve the perl source from a perlapp executable written by Excors for perlapp 5.3. Does anybody know how to bring this script up to date to work with perlapp 7.3?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
