# NOTE: This is a "wrapper" script, whose primary usage is to create single   #
# simple binaries on systems that don't come with perl preinstalled (Win and  #
# Macs). It's only purpose should be to create a .exe file that will load in  #
# pure perl code located in our ~/lib directory. Keep this slim!              #
