Ned, that isn't the case with my NT machine, and I therefore suspect it is
a file Association thing on your system: I get WinZip to open the
APi522e.exe file from a right-button (context) menu in Explorer, no prob
(installing the context-menu shell extensions for WinZip is an install-time
option on the most recent versions -- my WinZip is v 7.0 build 1260 for NT
. This being the case I wonder if a command-line UnZipper (even your Perl
solution) couldn't expand it to a temp directory for automated
installation. I am pretty interested in this.
I don't have time to go read the docs right now on zip to see whether basic
console zip can expand exe-ified (self-extracting) zip archives. I assume
you know.
Best,
soren andersen
