NAME

       makeself - An utility to generate self-extractable archives.

SYNTAX

       makeself [options] archive_dir file_name label [startup_script] [args]

DESCRIPTION

       This program is a free (GPL) utility designed to create self-extractable archives from a directory.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported.

       -v, --version  Prints out the makeself version number and exits.

       -h, --help     Print out help information.

       --gzip         Compress using gzip (default if detected).

       --bzip2        Compress using bzip2.

       --pbzip2       Compress using pbzip2.

       --xz           Compress using xz.

       --compress     Compress using the UNIX 'compress' command.

       --nocomp       Do not compress the data.

       --complevel lvl
                      Specify the compression level for gzip,bzip2,pbzui2 or xz

       --notemp       The   archive  will  create  archive_dir  in  the  current  directory  and  uncompress  in
                      ./archive_dir.

       --copy         Upon extraction, the archive will first copy itself to a temporary directory.

       --append       Append more files to an existing makeself archive. The label and startup scripts will then
                      be ignored.

       --current      Files  will  be  extracted to the current directory. Both --current and --target dir imply
                      --notemp.

       --target dir   Extract directly to a target directory. Directory path can be either absolute or relative.

       --header file  Specify location of the header script.

       --follow       Follow the symlinks in the archive.

       --noprogress   Do not show the progress during the decompression.

       --nox11        Disable automatic spawn of an xterm if running in X11.

       --nowait       Do not wait for user input after executing embedded program from an xterm.

       --nomd5        Do not create a MD5 checksum for the archive.

       --nocrc        Do not create a CRC32 checksum for the archive.

       --lsm file     LSM file describing the package.
