    Shell scripts are...well scripts. If you want to make an executable you might want to try one of the compilable languages like C, C++....Gerard4143

    "Let's try." Good suggestion! So try. Five minutes of googling this:
    Code:
    "script to binary"
    (don't forget the double quotes) will get your answer.

    Hope this helps.

    Of course, you're looking for conversion to binary of not a Perl script, but a shell script. The answer is in that google search. :)

    I have an answer, but I don't want to give it to another person (that is, you).
