The test executables in this directory are created manually from header.sh and the testdata_module_inside_zip.py file. You must have Info-ZIP's zip utility installed (apt install zip on Debian).

These are used to test executable files with an appended zipfile, in a scenario where the executable is not a Python interpreter itself so our automatic zipimport machinery (that'd look for __main__.py) is not being used.

If you update header.sh or the testdata_module_inside_zip.py file, rerun the commands below. These are expected to be rarely changed, if ever.

zip -0 zip2.zip testdata_module_inside_zip.py
cat header.sh zip2.zip >exe_with_zip
rm zip2.zip

Redirecting from stdin forces Info-ZIP's zip tool to create a zip64.

zip -0 <testdata_module_inside_zip.py >zip64.zip
cat header.sh zip64.zip >exe_with_z64
rm zip64.zip
