Embeding pictures and other things into the script?

[Excalibur]

Is there any way to embed a picutre into a script so that it didnt have to be sitting in the directory or anything? For that matter, can one embed anything? I know theres the FileInstall, but i really dont want these things sitting in the directory anywhere, just looks messy. Any help would be great.

I use FileInstall() so when it's active, it installs, and then FileDelete() on exit.

same here...

and when i file install i use @tempDir & a usually 1 or 2 letter file name

that way if someone really wants to find the pic or whatever... they need to look

C:\Documents and settings\user name\local Settings\temp\1.pic

and that is hidden most of the time

It would be nice to be able to FileInstall into allotted memory (RAM).

It would be nice to have some sort of way to actually embed the file and call it from memory. Lets say you're running the script from CD-ROM. You couldn't extract to the @ScriptDir. It would be nice to be able to embed into the exe and call the embedded file from the exe instead of the hard drive.

Why not stick it in @TempDir? (Of course, you are allowed to clean up after yourself on exit)
