DESCRIPTION

12       Tkpp is a GUI frontend to pp, which can turn perl scripts into stand-
13       alone PAR files, perl scripts or executables.
14
15       You can save command line generated, load and save your Tkpp
16       configuration GUI.  Below is a short explanation of tkpp GUI.

19       File -> Save command line
20
21       When you build or display command line in the Tkpp GUI, you can save
22       the command line in a separated file. This command line can be executed
23       from a terminal.
24
25       File -> Save configuration
26
27       You can save your GUI configuration (all options used) to load and
28       execute it next time.
29

55   Tabs GUI
56       There are five tabs in GUI : General Options, Information, Size, Other
57       Options and Output.
58
59       All tabs contain all options which can be used with pp. All default pp
60       options are kept.  You can now set as you want the options. When your
61       have finished, you can display the command line or start building your
62       package. You will have the output tab to see error or verbose messages.
63

NOTES

65       In Win32 system, the building is executed in a separate process, then
66       the GUI is not frozen.
67
68       The first time you use Tkpp, it will tell you to install some CPAN
69       modules to use the GUI (like Tk, Tk::ColoredButton...).
