To create a WarpIN archive, you need to perform the following steps:
  1. Create a temporary directory on your hard disk, including subdirectories, as a mirror of the later installation. Copy all distribution files to the proper locations in that tree. That is, put all directories and files into this directory tree as you want them to be unpacked on the user's hard disk later.

  2. Write an install script with the information necessary for your archive. A basic install script (files only, no CONFIG.SYS or WPS changes) can be found on a separate page.

  3. Use the WarpIN Command Interface (WIC.EXE) to create your archive. This will pack all the files and the script into one .WPI file: the archive which you can distribute later.
That's it. The most difficult part of this is to get the install script right, which takes a bit of getting used to. But most of the commands are not needed, except for more complicated scripts.
