I want to try Perl6, but making the binary, I get this error: C:\parrot-0.8.2\bin>pbc_to_exe.exe "C:\parrot-0.8.2\languages\perl6\perl6.pbc" Unable to open filehandle current instr.: '_config' pc 6 (library/config.pir:54) called from Sub 'handle_args' pc 241 (pbc_to_exe.pir:99) called from Sub 'main' pc 68 (pbc_to_exe.pir:29) Am I missing something? or are there any other procedure other than this post by chromatic.

Solution is to create a batch file instead as follows: @echo off rem adjust the path below to suit your environment set PARROT_ROOTDIR=c:\parrot-0.8.2 %PARROT_ROOTDIR%\bin\parrot.exe %PARROT_ROOTDIR%\languages\perl6\perl6.pbc %* I saved it as C:\parrot-0.8.2\bin\perl6.cmd Then I added this to my PATH env variable: C:\parrot-0.8.2\bin\ Now this works: C:\dev\perl6>perl6 hello.pl Hello World! Hurray, now I'm ready to play with perl6. Thanks so much! Posted by samdc to Parrot at December 17, 2008 1:43 PM
