Can I create some nice distribution like a MSI or an Installshield wizard?
-> Activestate’s Perl Development Kit includes PerlMSI. I haven’t used it, but according to the description on the website it is possible to create MSI’s easily with that. Besides that there is InnoSetup a free, Open Source Installshield clone. It is *very* easy to use and allows you to build a nice installer around your program. Another free tool (just like the previous one not related to Perl in any way) is NSIS, the NullSoft Scriptable Install System. As far as I’ve heard you can do even more with this than with InnoSetup, but I’ve never used it so far.
