To create executables, in the past, I've simply used the ppm to install PAR.
This placed pp.bat in the \Perl\site\bin directory.
Easy.
Now, the same steps don't work. I've used both the ppm gui and the command
line.
Everything seems to install just fine, but no pp is anywhere on my system.
A similar problem happened recently to a co-worker of mine. For
some reason, he just didn't have the "pp" executable anywhere in his
%PATH%.
He eventually fixed the problem by going to the Perl Package
Manager and adding a new repository. Then he was able to successfully
install PAR with the command:
ppm install PAR
ACK! Bad plan. This will probably give you an older version of PAR. It
would be much better to install the current versions of PAR and
PAR-Packer from the AS repo.

Actually, Activestate has frequently been behind the curve on PAR
releases. I recommend getting PAR from bribes, instructions at:
http://www.bribes.org/perl/ppmdir.html
It's up to date with CPAN for PAR.
