No Add Password Support ??

[coucou]

Hi,

To add a language file to some apps, i'm using the following AutoIt script to check the "HKCU\Control Panel\International\sLanguage" registry value, if it equal to "FRA" the i copy/run my language file.

$Lang = RegRead("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International", "sLanguage")
If $Lang = "FRA" Then
	RunWait("HS62001_LangFR.exe")
EndIf

The size of that compiled autoit script file is about 200K.

To downsize the final archive file, i have to translate the above .au3 file to a .cmd file.
Anyone can help writing that .cmd script?

Regards
coucou

Try:

FOR /F "tokens=2*" %%a in ('REG QUERY "HKCU\Control Panel\International" /v sLanguage') DO @(SET Lang=%%b)
IF "%Lang%"=="FRA" START /WAIT HS62001_LangFR.exe
SET Lang=

[Yzöwl]

Just an additional note to the above, there is no real need to either use a for loop or set a variable which isn't needed.

@reg query "hkcu\control panel\international" /v slanguage|find "FRA">nul 2>&1&&start "" /wait hs62001_langfr.exe

All the above is one line!

Also if you were to use program to hide the console window then you could shorten it a little too.

reg query "hkcu\control panel\international" /v slanguage|find "FRA"&&start "" /wait hs62001_langfr.exe

All the above is one line again!

[jpeachman]

Excellent point about there being no need to set a variable! I confess I haven't written any AutoIT scripts and was just attempting a pretty literal translation of the original into a batch file. I didn't write the FOR loop so nicely, either. It can easily be done with a single iteration, and everything can go on one line with unwanted output suppressed too by using:

@FOR /F "tokens=3 skip=4" %%a IN ('REG QUERY "HKCU\Control Panel\International" /v sLanguage') DO @IF "%%a"=="FRA" START /WAIT HS62001_LangFR.exe

Yzöwl's example of piping through FIND is still slightly shorter than this, though. Where using FOR rather than FIND might be shorter and more straightforward is if you were testing for more than one condition. For a three-language example:

@FOR /F "tokens=3 skip=4" %%a IN ('REG QUERY "HKCU\Control Panel\International" /v sLanguage') DO @IF "%%a"=="FRA" (START /WAIT HS62001_LangFR.exe) ELSE IF "%%a"=="DEU" (START /WAIT HS62001_LangDE.exe) ELSE IF "%%a"=="ENU" (START /WAIT HS62001_LangEN.exe)

It's probably good to know both techniques; still, Yzöwl's method is shortest for the specific need expressed by coucou!

So exactly what does this application do?

It would be nice to have a little snippet of info in the OPs post. Maybe a screenshot too if appropriate.

All the info you need is presented on the website through links provided in the opening post of this topic. Unfortunately the site is down for a while so you'd have to wait for it to come back up again for that info.

If you've already got the module it has a reasonably good help file with it giving switches, options and usage examples etc.

Hi, I'm AlbatroS :-)

First of all, thanx to Oleg_Sch and all contributors here. It's great what we can do with those modified SFXs!

AFAIK Oleg_Sch modules doesn't support encripted archives, isn't it?
In my opinion it could be useful if I send a secret file to someone, so I simply have to say: "launch it, input password and enjoy it" (without have to extract, then browse to get it, then finally launch it).
ATM WinRAR sfx can do it, so... why Oleg_Sch should have to not do it?

[gora]

Hi, AlbatroS.
Compression of the module can cause FALSE detection of some anti-virus programs. In this case you can switch-off compression of the module through a file Settings.ini:

Quote

; To use compression - 1 or 2, is not use - 0
useUPX=0

All this is in detail described in Russian Manual.

I hope Oleg_Sch will reply too (will modules support encripted archives?).

If you will be satisfied with my answer, at Russian forum Oleg_Sch responded, that: "Support by the module of encryption is NOT planned"

Hi, gora.
Upacked files (Total Commander tool use Upack even if it shows "UPX" in settings.ini) are generically tagged as malicious/suspicious by some AVs. Below you can see Virustotal results of same file packed using UPX instead.
So can UPX be considered best way to compress without AVs false detection risk?

Hi, AlbatroS.

In the first versions of "button" it was used UPX and you can use UPX instead of WinUpack. In a file Settings.ini make the following:

; Path to the UPX
pathUPX=!COMMANDER_PATH!\Utilites\SFX Tool\upx.exe
;pathUPX=!COMMANDER_PATH!\Utilites\SFX Tool\Upack.exe
; To use compression - 1 or 2, is not use - 0
useUPX=1
; The command line for UPX
cmdlinUPX=--best --all-methods
;cmdlinUPX=-c2 -f222

File upx.exe put in the specified folder or replace a way to it.

[dll32]

I cant seem to find any documentation on how to specify InstallPath as a parameter on the exe, is it possible?
If not, is there any alternative way?

InstallPath="path_to_extract"

Sets the extraction path. The extraction folder will not be deleted after the extraction.

If the 'InstallPath' value is not present in the config file or the path was deleted from the interactive extraction dialog, the archive will be extracted to a temporary folder. This temporary folder will be deleted after the extraction and execution of all commands.

Environment variables are allowed (with the exception of %%T and variables defined in 'SetEnvironment', if %%T is used in any of them). You MUST use DOUBLE backslashes in paths. For example:

InstallPath="C:\\Windows\\system32\\test"

or

InstallPath="%PROGRAMFILES%\\test"

Relative paths are allowed. The current folder is the one from which the program launching SFX archive was executed. For example,

InstallPath="test"

creates a folder with the name of "test" in the folder from which the program launching SFX archive was executed. All files will be extracted to the "test" folder. On the other hand,

InstallPath="."

extracts the archive content to the folder from which the program launching SFX archive was executed. Also,

InstallPath="%%S"

extracts the archive content to the folder where the SFX is located.

If all you need is to extract the archive content to a certain folder, you need to specify a value for 'InstallPath' in the config file. In this case you should not specify 'RunProgram' or 'ExecuteFile' in the config file. 'AutoInstall' or 'AutoInstallX' may be specified in the config file, but should not be invoked via the command line or with the [SHIFT] key. If you specify 'RunProgram' or 'ExecuteFile' or invoke 'AutoInstall' and 'AutoInstallX', the specified executable will be launched after the extraction.

dll32,
If you mean "as command line parameter", then it is impossible in current version. This is in ToDo list for version 1.3.
