Hans-G?nter@24877 | 1 makeself.sh is a small shell script that generates a self-extractable |
Hans-G?nter@24877 | 2 compressed tar archive from a directory. |
Hans-G?nter@24877 | 3 The resulting file appears as a shell script (many of those have a |
Hans-G?nter@24877 | 4 .run suffix), and can be launched as is. |
Hans-G?nter@24877 | 5 The archive will then uncompress itself to a temporary directory and |
Hans-G?nter@24877 | 6 an optional arbitrary command will be executed (for example an |
Hans-G?nter@24877 | 7 installation script). This is pretty similar to archives generated |
Hans-G?nter@24877 | 8 with WinZip Self-Extractor in the Windows world. |
Hans-G?nter@24877 | 9 Makeself archives also include checksums for integrity self-validation |
Hans-G?nter@24877 | 10 (CRC and/or MD5/SHA256 checksums). |
