- makeself.sh is a small shell script that generates a self-extractable tar.gz
- archive from a directory. The resulting file appears as a shell script
- (many of those have a .run suffix), and can be launched as is. The archive
- will then uncompress itself to a temporary directory and an optional arbitrary
- command will be executed (for example an installation script). This is pretty
- similar to archives generated with WinZip Self-Extractor in the Windows world.
- Makeself archives also include checksums for integrity self-validation
- (CRC and/or MD5 checksums)."
