Subject: Can't fatpack .pl files
I would like to fatpack in my app a .pl file that I will load with 'do': my @data = do 'MyDir/MyFile.pl'; This not a traditional Perl module. Instead the only API for this file is that loading it must return a list of values. This is the reason why I don't want to call it '.pm'. Unfortunately App::FatPacker only packs .pm files and ignores (with a warning) my .pl file. Would you accept a patch that fix that (.pl loading)? -- Olivier Mengué - http://perlresume.org/DOLMEN

This seems pretty reasonable to me. I'd be fine with including it.
