I think you're getting the idea, at this point, that this is
considered a bad idea, regardless of what platform you're targeting.

You may have an actual issue, but unless you explain to us what you
thought you were going to achieve via obfuscating your code, we're not
going to be able to help with that.

Also, I'm a little disappointed in the "it's Perl, it's already
obfuscated" answers. If you think the Perl you're writing is
pre-obfuscated, you're doing it wrong. My Perl code is idiomatic, easy
to read and understand, and as clear, if not more so, than code
written in any other language. One of the common criticisms of Perl is
that it's a "write-only language". This is, frankly, bullshit -- but
having people on a list aimed at helping Perl beginners promote that
bullshit only makes it more odorous. Please stop.

thanks,
john.
