If you drop files with 'Ctrl' key pressed, then you can archive them to
an SFX archive (executable and self-extractable archive.)<br>
*) for lzh, cab, bga archives only.
</p>
<p>
When you drop multiple files, normally Noah will pack them to one archive.
But if you drop files with 'Alt' key pressed, then each files is compressed to
different archives. 
</p>

<h2><a name="extr">Extraction</a></h2>
