Bundling things into my complied script

[lurikeen]

I was wondering if there was a way to do this? I'm interested in including an exe I am going to call later via _RunDOS.

Might as well kill 2 birds with 1 stone: Is there a way I can utilize a file, such as file.trash (in a separate folder), as an exe without actually renaming it? This would be in _RunDOS or shellExecute.

Including files is easy, take a look at the "FileInstall" command in the help file.

FileInstall ( "source", "dest" [, flag] )

The mentioned file will be included into your exe file when you compile your script and is automatically expanded at runtime.

Starting some file which has no .exe/.com/.bat extension as an executable program without renaming it is not possible, AFAIK.

Awesome, thanks! That is exactly what I needed.
