Re^2: Can you change the location PAR packer pp unpacks to at runtime?

Thanks for the reply. This looks like what I might want to go ahead and try. However, when you say set the envi var am I changing the source? In this case par.pl and setuptemp.pm? To be honest, looking at that code and trying to make sense of it does go a little over my head.

If I do need to go in and change the guts, I will post what I need specific help with once I fumble around a bit more.

No... I only really speak unix, but from the shell you can PAR_TEMP=/my/location executable.elf2, I'm sure there's a way to set an environment variable in win32... It's some thing like set PAR_TEMP=blahblahblah I imagine. -Paul	[reply]

Thanks again for your help. For win32 you are 100% right it is: SET PAR_TEMP=C:\____. However, one more question. Do I set the envi var on the machine doing the packing, or the machine doing the unpacking? I really appriciate the help! -Bio. ---- Even a blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes.	[reply]

The machine running the program of course.	[reply]
