Jar Ajar is a JAR-based self-extractor for zip files. Zip up files and package them with descriptive images and text using Jar Ajar's graphical interface. When recipients launch the resulting JAR, Jar Ajar guides users through the unzip process.

Features

  • Packager: choose files or pre-zipped archives to deliver in a single JAR file
  • Self-extractor: recipients can run this file to extract all the files you included
  • Installer: specify an application to be launched as well as licence and documentation
  • Launcher: the same installer file can be used as a shortcut to re-launch the application
