Help: Packing of files separately.

Hi all!
Such question. Whether it is possible by means of NSIS to make a exe-file, that it would pack beside laying files separately and put their number...
Example:
in a folder dir files: 1.txt, 2.txt, 3.txt...
After performance...
In a folder dir files: 1.zip, 2.zip, 3.zip...

If it is possible, prompt idea (example) or the reference where it is possible to esteem.

Thanks!

Hi,

I assume, you are just interested in zipping up the files of any folder. May be using NSIS it would be little tricky, I am not sure but search for zip plug-in(it's there for NSIS), if it helps.

I would suggest to write an application may be C# or vb.net using SharpZipLib

Hope this helps.

Probably I not so was expressed. A kind of compression to me it is not important. The main thing, what as a result of work of an exe-file, files being near to it were packed on one. As I badly understand programming, it would be desirable to carry out conceived in NSIS (I have a little understood it).
