Unzip file from Desktop to PPC

Hi,

I am looking for a easy way to create an installer for PPC which make only two simple things.

The first one is to unzip an zip file from a Desktop to the memory card of a PPC (via ActivSync).

The second is to lunch a CAB install (I made very quickily this part).

I made a script with the examples given on the wiki, but I can only create Directory, or create empty file... but it seems to be impossible to unzip file, or to copy file from Desktop to PPC......

Has anybody a tip or the beginning of a solution ?
Is there any plug-ins I miss to do what I want to do ?

You could unzip the zip file locally and use the instruction File to add file(s) in your installer and extract them on target,

I tried that already, but the function (given on the wiki) used to copy files from desktop to PDA just create file, and not fill them....

This thread might help

Are you a developer who uses NSIS to distribute your application? Are you a Winamp plug-in developer who wants to use NSIS to distribute your plug-in? Have suggestions for other people like you? This is the place.


The only problem is, that it writes out line by line i think.

So you would have to read in the source file line by line also.

Not sure how it works, good luck

Thanks for your answer, but I saw this way, and tried it before post here ^^.

This way read a file line by line, but it seems to only read...never write in a file (this give me 0 byte file...).
