Distribution Kit Enhancement.

Status: New

It would be helpful if the distribution kit had three additional options;

 

  1. Compress all of the files and subfolders into a single *.zip file.
  2. An option to convert the *.zip to a self extracting archive (SEA) file *.exe.
  3. An option to automatically run "Setup.exe" after completing the file extraction from the SEA.

Option 3 is only available if option 2 is selected and option 2 is only available if option 1 is selected.

 

The above can be done with external tools and is helpful when distributing via a web-download, Dropbox or another internet based system. Installation for the end user is then simply a case of clicking a single link and running a single file. After that they are prompted by the usual installation dialog.
