When you store data files in the project directory and compile the
program those files are contained within the resulting .gambas
executable.

PS: Or what Benoit said... BTW: is the .gambas file in a Gambas-specific
archive format?

Yes. Why?

I thought about a way to unpack the archive. gba3 -x didn't come to my mind.
Before I came up with the recursive copy from inside the process, I wondered
if we could just strip away the shebang and use tar or something to extract
it. I don't need it to be a standard format if that's why you asked.
