cmd/batch --> exe

[Yzöwl]

However, it doesn't support .cmd extension.  But that's not a big problem, isn't it?

Are there any changes, you should make to a cmd file, other than just renaming it to bat.

The latest version (1.0.6.3) does support CMD files now. Of course, I find it to be rather buggy myself. Here's my list of gripes:

• Doesn't remember save to location (gets very irritating having to navigate to the correct folder every time I want to make an EXE)
  
• Doesn't do version number properly (nothing ResHacker can't fix, but still)
  
• Gives the program an icon even when I specifically tell it not to (again, nothing ResHacker can't fix, but still)
  
• BIG BUG: A couple users haven't been able to run my compiled exe. The window just flashes up then quits.
  
• I wish it had a context menu option for bat and cmd files to compile on the fly
  
• I wish it supported UPX compression.
  

So yeah, it's got a long way to go in my book and isn't remotely close to being worth $40.

Something else you could do:

Create a self-extracting package (win32 gui) with winrar (or 7-zip), add your cmd-file and CMDOW.EXE, and then make sure the package silently extracts to a temp-directory and after that executes your cmd-file. The last instruction in your cmd-file should delete the file!

You cannot UPX this file because you get an AlreadyCompressed exception...

I agree with Sixpack

he was the one that taught me how to compress my DP drivers.

[KNARZ]

i tried more than 50 exe that i created in allways a different way

with 1055 and 1062 all in ghost... sometimes i wrote in the programm than i loaded in programm and i loaded in the secound try and so on...

IT NERVER WORKED WHILE SETUP after 1. boot... exe work..

maybe i will give you later my cmd's than YOU can complie it and we will try it =)

[Astalavista]

ok

now much will u pay sixpack and me to compile it we take paypall, money order, and visa cards. 40 Euros should cover it.

BIG BUG: A couple users haven't been able to run my compiled exe. The window just flashes up then quits.

I get this too, when i used one of Astalavistas switless installers it didnt run, and ive downloaded the program myself (the free trail) and you get a popup saying it was compiled using the freeware version which i dont mind but the .exe still doesnt do anything .

Would be interesting to find out why, Could be some sort of compenent removal from nlite but im not one of thse people who rip out alot. Just sme of the safe and uneeded stuff.

Oh well.

* Doesn't remember save to location (gets very irritating having

to navigate to the correct folder every time I want to make an EXE)

1. Fixed in new version

* Doesn't do version number properly (nothing ResHacker can't fix,

but still)

2. Application contain a two version inside executable. We change only one

resource (DWORD), but not change a second (STRING) because this string

depends from OS language e.t.c.

* Gives the program an icon even when I specifically tell it not

to (again, nothing ResHacker can't fix, but still)

3. All executable contain default icon

* BIG BUG: A couple users haven't been able to run my compiled

exe. The window just flashes up then quits.

4. Yes, this problem caused by incorrect PATH environment variable.

This is well-known problem for Win2000/XP. By default PATH string may exeed

255 character and many programs will have a problems. For example

InstallShield will be frozen at %99. We will check PATH variable and correct

it.

* I wish it had a context menu option for bat and cmd files to

compile on the fly

5. Yes, added in new version

* I wish it supported UPX compression.

6. Sorry, this is impossible due non-standard EXE format. We will reduce EXE

size later.

SWEET can't wait! Only a couple of more days... according to the programmers.

hehehheh

, QBFC is nothing but a glorified SFX archive. See for yourself, the batch file is extracted to the temp folder with a random filename and hidden attribute at runtime. I could do the same thing with a little 7zip SFX module hacking.

[Astalavista]

Can u pls release your own version of QFC for us so we dont have to pay the $40.00
