make cab

[dirtwarrior]

I am learning all I can about windows and I am at the part to learn how to expand cabs edit them and then recab at the same rate as before.

Also will this work on EX_ files?

Please help

This adds a "expandit"-entry to the contextmenu:

(to expand files like .ex_ , .dl_ )

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

;Adds Expand to right click of files

;%systemroot%\System32\expand.exe -r %1 %1

To compress .exe to .ex_ use Jcarle's Compression Bin.
