+cat << EOF
+makeself.sh is a small shell script that generates a self-extractable tar.gz
+archive from a directory. The resulting file appears as a shell script (many of
+those have a .run suffix), and can be launched as is. The archive will then
+uncompress itself to a temporary directory and an optional arbitrary command
+will be executed (for example an installation script). This is pretty similar to
+archives generated with WinZip Self-Extractor in the Windows world. Makeself
+archives also include checksums for integrity self-validation (CRC and/or MD5
+checksums).
+
+The makeself.sh script itself is used only to create the archives from a
+directory of files. The resultant archive is actually a compressed (using gzip,
+bzip2, or compress) TAR archive, with a small shell script stub at the
+beginning. This small stub performs all the steps of extracting the files,
+running the embedded command, and removing the temporary files when it's all
+over. All what the user has to do to install the software contained in such an
+archive is to "run" the archive, i.e sh nice-software.run. I recommend using the
+"run" (which was introduced by some Makeself archives released by Loki Software)
+or "sh" suffix for such archives not to confuse the users, since they know it's
+actually shell scripts (with quite a lot of binary data attached to it though!).
