Zip2Sfx 2.2


Converts a ZIP archive to the self-extracting archive

The Zip2Sfx application was designed to be a small tool which converts a ZIP archive to the self-extracting archive.

What is a self-extracting archive?
Self-extracting archive is an executable file (unpacker), which contains also archive data of the whole ZIP file from which was created. Self-extracting archive could be extracted without need of any other ZIP unpacker.

It takes the executable code from the sfx package (file with extension .sfx) and append the archive data to the new executable which is created.
