Default Programming SFX-files.


Hi. Are there anyone who knows the command in a SFX-file, to get it to find the location it was placed in, in the first place. In short: I need to know which com. to use, to get the SFX-file to run a file/program before extracting to the final location. I`ve done this before, but it`s so long ago, and i don`t remember the command for it. So if anyone could help me with this, i`d be very grateful.

Best regards.....

I assume you are referring to a self extracting archive?
I think it depends with what kind of archiver the SFX archive was created and I suppose they all have their own command structure.

What do you want to accomplish?
