No, I don't know if cross platform creation of a Windows self-extractin= g .exe=20 is possible.

The only documentation that I found other than the man page is installe= d=20 under: /usr/lib64/p7zip/help/cmdline/switches/sfx.htm It mentions that "SFX modules for installers are included in an externa= l=20 package (7z_extra)", but haven't found it (or other sfx modules) on my = system=20 and the online 7z_extra is full of MSWindows files, but not these modul= es. Perhaps it is not doable from a Linux system, at least not without inst= alling=20 it first in a MSWindows VM to get the Windows modules out. I will try = that=20 next. =2D-=20 Regards, Mick --nextPart1915798.ml6u5iR9MA Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
