Summary

Xceed Absolute Packager - Application - V1.1 by Xceed Software

Create high-quality, self-extracting Zip files. Xceed Absolute Packager is an application that creates what Xceed calls "Smart Zip Files" because they are more than just self-extracting Zip files. Unlike most self-extracting zip files, which offer a cluttered, user-unfriendly look, Absolute Packager's smart zip files offer a rich, polished interface. Use Absolute Packager to create Smart Zip Files that inspire confidence and maximize end-user convenience.

Absolute Packager's Smart Zip Files are very compact, but provide plenty of flexibility. They let you customize their title, introduction message, icon, and everything else the Smart Zip File displays. You can decide where files should be unzipped to, what happens when they are unzipped, and other things normally beyond your control when you use regular Zip files. All this is done through Absolute Packager's easy-to-use "wizard-style" interface. Creating a Smart Zip File can be as easy as entering a title, introduction message, and selecting the files you want to Zip up!

The free trial version of Absolute Packager is available to download from the ComponentSource Web site. When installed on your system, it runs in free trial mode, and allows you to discover the convenience and power of Smart Zip Files for yourself. In free trial mode, Absolute Packager lets you access all of its Smart Zip File creation features, except that the Smart Zip Files you create will only work on your own computer. When you purchase Absolute Packager, you can unlock your copy and then freely distribute the Smart Zip Files you create!

Absolute Packager includes comprehensive Windows Help documentation, free expert technical support, royalty-free smart zip file distribution and a 60-day money-back guarantee. It's the smart choice for distributing your files!

Features:

Key Absolute Packager operations

Create smart zip files from any group of files, or transform already existing Zip files into smart zip files

Create either 16-bit smart zip files that work on all Windows 3.x, Windows 95 and Windows NT operating systems, or 32-bit smart zip files that support long filenames and work on Windows 95/98 and Windows NT

Create smart zip files that span multiple disks

Features of Absolute Packager smart zip files:

Introduction message and dialog box titles are customizable

Display a custom license agreement with configurable accept and refuse buttons

Customize all other messages, prompts and button captions too

Customize the smart zip file's icon

Customizable default unzipping location with optional confirmation window that allows users to select an alternate unzipping location

Encrypt files and display a password window whenever an encrypted file is encountered. The user can enter the decryption password or skip the file if they don't have the password for the file

Create smart zip files with a built-in decryption password. This prevents users from using unzipping programs to unzip the smart zip file's contents - users are thus forced to view your custom introduction, license agreement or warning messages

Create program-groups and insert items into program groups

Associate filename extensions with applications

Customizable overwrite behavior. When a file being unzipped already exists, the smart zip file can: prompt the user whether to overwrite or not, always overwrite, never overwrite or overwrite older files only

Display a text file after successfully unzipping files

Execute an application, or open a document associated with an application after successfully unzipping files. Optional command-line parameters can also be specified

Delete files feature: allows 3rd party install or setup programs (and their data files) to be extracted into a temporary directory, executed, and then deleted upon completion

Display a detailed status dialog while unzipping files

Shut off any or all of the smart zip file's on-screen messages and windows, allowing completely windowless operation if desired

Many of the smart zip file's customized paths, filenames, strings and prompts are parsed, allowing you to insert strings such as the current directory, Windows and Windows System directories, the temporary directory, and more
