    Auto extracting archive

    Hello!

    I知 new here and i知 a newbie

    Owkay, my problem:

    I know how to Zip files in Linux. But now I want to create an auto extracting archive of files that are inside a directorie.

    I want the files to auto extract to a specific location, but it has to work on a Window machine. (the files are being zipped on a Linux computer, then exported to a Window computer)

    To make it clear (I know my English is bad ) this is wat I would love to be able to do:

    0) Files inside a directory, on a Linux computer
    1) Create an auto extracting archive (eg: extract to C:/Windows) of the files inside the dir
    2) Archive is send to the Windows user
    3) Windows user opens archive
    4) Files extract to c:/Windows

    Hope someone can solve my problem ! Thnx!
