iirc the SFX files are self extracting DMS archives. I aint too sure how
they work now (been that long since I used em!)...

Forget that, just found my TVPaint archives now... just double click em (in
dopus anyway) and it pops a exe command box up,. enter to that and then a
cli opens with the usual DMS thingy..

Just tried it from a cli as well and it does the same, just type in the
archive name in and hit enter and you will get the above.

Well I guess you tried the above?

Email me privately if you have any more problems.
(btw, I couldnt register the program when running it on a SFS partition, FFS
and PFS register it fine!?!?)
