Note that most programs that can extract ZIP files should be able to extract
the contents of the EXE file - self-extracting ZIPs are valid ZIP files
themselves.

Yeah, I’ve done that in the past, but I didn’t have any luck in this case.
Stuffit Expander, the built-in OS X archive utility, and another zip program
failed to unzip it successfully. The unzip utility reports the following:
End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.
In any case, it’s all water under the bridge now as the
complete.zip file has
been identified.
Thanks,

As announced here the Windows
distribution is no longer a self-extracting zip file, because we wanted to give
new users a more friendly installation interface. As a side-benefit we were able
to allow the optional installation of the several extensions to the basic
library (aliases, true-colour parts and NonCA parts).
Many apologies that I did not make a more visible announcement of the
availability of the complete zip archive.
