NAME

       PAR::Packer - PAR Packager

DESCRIPTION

       This module implements the App::Packer::Backend interface, for generating stand-alone executables, perl
       scripts and PAR files.

       Currently, this module is used by the command line tool pp internally, as well as by the contributed
       contrib/gui_pp/gpp program.

       Since version 0.97 of PAR, this module and its related tools such as "pp" have been stripped from the PAR
       distribution and are now distributed as the "PAR-Packer" distribution so that PAR users need not
       necessarily have a C compiler.

SEE ALSO

       PAR, pp

       App::Packer, App::Packer::Backend

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

       Mattia Barbon for taking the first step in refactoring pp into App::Packer::Backend::PAR, and Edward S.
       Peschko for continuing the work that eventually became this module.
