Packer is a simple program which packs up multiple files in to a packaged file, this packaged file is also a lua program, run the packaged file and it will unpack it's self and recreate the files you packed up in it.

Usage:
packer output_dir:dir1:dir2:dir3 etc.
requires at lease two dirs, output and dir1, the rest are optional. Split each dir by a ":" dir's cannot contain the ":" symbol.

Download:

or paste bin get thingy:
pastebin get MfZuAruJ packer

That's it, this means you can give users multiple files in one file, tell them to run the file they downloaded and then use like normal :D/>

Thanks :P/>/>

If it could in some way pack directories themselves this could very much be useful! But without it its still as greate! Nice work (Is this close to zip/archiving :? :P)
