Reading ini files without extracting them. Possible?
Hi,

I would like to create a generic installer/utility that can read values from a separate ini file enclosed in the installer itself. Is it possible to read/import the values in the ini file without first having first to extract it somewhere, read it and then deleting it?

I don't think this is possible - decompressing to $TEMP will do exactly the same job though
