No, I don't know if cross platform creation of a Windows self-extracting .exe is possible. I was hoping/assuming/researching that it was. > Can you point to their documentation that says it's possible or how to do > it? > > Stroller. The only documentation that I found other than the man page is installed under: /usr/lib64/p7zip/help/cmdline/switches/sfx.htm It mentions that "SFX modules for installers are included in an external package (7z_extra)", but haven't found it (or other sfx modules) on my system and the online 7z_extra is full of MSWindows files, but not these modules. Perhaps it is not doable from a Linux system, at least not without installing it first in a MSWindows VM to get the Windows modules out. I will try that next. -- Regards, Mick
