Are you tired of having to limit your perl scripts so that they will run on different OS. There is a solution, use a live linux cd to write and run your perl script, that way the enviroment stays the same, no more worrying about can I use system, what is the end of line marker, what libaries are there, etc.

This is good, I have been using MEPIS linux live CD, because it has perlTk and netpbm as standard. However there is still one draw-back my scripts and databases have to go somewhere else. The best place would be to put my perl scripts and other data on the same CD. Is there a live CD that let's you add other things by just putting it on the CD. If not how would one go about making such a CD.

All suggestions and comments welcome.
