A gentle reminder.. Can anyone please help me here ? I am not able to
execute the generated .pir file.

ashiva at ubuntu:~/EScript$ ./installable_escript Test/hello.es
Hello World!

ashiva at ubuntu:~/EScript$
ashiva at ubuntu:~/EScript$ ./installable_escript --target=pir Test/hello.es

.HLL "escript"

.namespace []
.sub "_block1000"  :anon :subid("10_1374761960.96533")
.annotate 'file', "Test/hello.es"
.annotate 'line', 1
    $P100 = "say"("Hello World!\n")
    .return ($P100)
.end

ashiva at ubuntu:~/EScript$ ./installable_escript --target=pir Test/hello.es >
Test/hello.pir
ashiva at ubuntu:~/EScript$
ashiva at ubuntu:~/EScript$
ashiva at ubuntu:~/EScript$ parrot Test/hello.pir
Could not find sub say
current instr.: '_block1000' pc 6 (Test/hello.pir:8) (Test/hello.es:1)
ashiva at ubuntu:~/EScript$

Thanks & Regards,
Ashiva

Thanks & Regards,*
