`packelf` was inspired by [the idea of Klaus D](https://askubuntu.com/a/546305). It is used to pack a ELF program and its dependent libraries into a single executable file.
## usage
## Usage (packelf):
```
Usage: ./packelf.sh [-zjJn] <ELF_SRC_PATH> <DST_PATH> [ADDITIONAL_LIBS ...]
-zjJ compress flag passed to tar, '-z' by default
-n pack without compress
Usage: ./packelf.sh <ELF_SRC_PATH> <DST_PATH> [ADDITIONAL_LIBS]
```
First, pack a ELF program. For example, you can pack `ls` like this:
@ -28,41 +26,17 @@ You can execute the packed program directly:
However, every time the packed program is executed, an internal unpacking operation is performed automatically, which results in a slower startup of the program.
If you need to execute the program many times and want to reduce the startup time, you can unpack the program before executing it.
## USAGE EXTRA TOOLS:
```
# Run the packed program directly, it takes longer.
~ # time bash -c 'for i in {1..100};do /root/ls >/dev/null; done'

'ls' was unpacked to '/usr/local/bin'.
You can run '/usr/local/bin/ls ARGS...' to execute the command.
# ls and ls.res are generated after unpacking.
