    If I look into my file system I see ~/EvilHack_083/.git
    which indicates that there's a Git repository somewhere.
    It should be easy to make Google find that resource; use
    (for example) the keywords: evilhack git repository

    How come that zip file doesn't contain an executable?

    I don't know what you are referring to by "that zip file".

    Generally speaking; an archive package may contain anything
    the person who packaged it wanted to be in the package.

    Typically you find source packages containing the components
    to build the tools (libraries, executables) yourself from
    the source code with standard tools in your environment.
    Or you find runtime packages that contain for a specific
    runtime environment the executable and all necessary runtime
    and configuration files.

    What I have on my system is obviously a git clone of the
    Evilhack project. That means that with the URL found on the
    Net I issued locally a 'git' command to obtain an image of
    the source files in my file system, and could then proceed
    to compile that source (as with an unpacked source package).

    If you're looking for a pre-compiled executable you'll have
    to use the appropriate keywords in your search. Then you'll
    see whether one exists in the first place. Otherwise you'll
    have to compile one from the sources.

    If you just want to play EvilHack then I suggest to play it
    on a public server using some telnet or ssh client software.

    Hope that helps to identify your demands and to proceed.

    But please, next time, spend more effort in formulating your
    needs and problems more accurately that we don't get the
    impression that our support is just a waste of time. Thanks.
