All AutoHotkey (AHK) coders read: No more upx packing of compiled ahk utils

<< < (4/8) > >>

Before Linux had to be able to handle all these Windows file formats, most files didn't even have an extension.  You relied on a program called 'file' iirc that looked at the start of the file and guessed if it was a printer configuration file, a bash script, an executable etc..-MilesAhead (January 13, 2010, 01:12 PM)

I've always preferred file extensions over having to look at contents (or metadata, as in case of Apple OSes) - for a lot of reasons. Like, being faster and easier to filter by.

This tool written by ladiko over at the AHK forum not only gives you more options when compiling your AHK scripts but also has an option to NOT use UPX.

FWIW, I've been using this for a few things and it seems pretty decent.  Thanks for pointing this out :)

mouser:
a recent post shows that the flagging of everything made with UPX is getting worse and more widespread:

STOP USING UPX NOW -- IF YOU HAVE SOFTWARE THAT USES UPX, REBUILD IT WITHOUT UPX

we need a coding snack that searches through DC forums and displays links to upx-compiled exe files. :)
