• pe file for thinbasic not possible?

    Largo, i have done an experiment . making a bundled exe: file "ok.exe" without choosing to obfuscate the source.
    now when i run the "ok.exe" it inflates itself to a hidden files, to see it you must enable show hidden files in folder options (in win xp)


    and when i go to commnad prompt with dir/a command i got this:


    so the folder have all neccessary files to run the *.tbasic code (here it is tb10c.tbasic") without thinbasic installed. obfuscate code will prevent others from reading its content as a readable code.
    i haven't read how this is done but may be this link :
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zlib usefull also read the articles about zlib
    i saw many zip files in the form of exe when you run it is decompressing to a folder.
    another possible example of bundling software is BAT to EXE, VBS to EXE Converter http://www.scriptcode.com/battoexe/
