Makeself is a software package designed to quickly and easily create self-extracting archives. It is a simple and easy-to-use application that allows users to package files and applications into a single executable file. It can be used to create archives for distribution over the Internet or through other means. The archives it creates are self-extracting, meaning they can be extracted without requiring any additional software. Makeself is designed to work with any operating system, and can be used to package files for Linux, Mac, and Windows systems. The archives generated are also password-protected, allowing users to keep their data secure. Makeself also contains several compression algorithms, allowing users to compress their files and applications before packaging them into an archive.
