Software package
A software package is a bundle of one or several files that either are necessary for the execution of a computer program, or add features for a program already installed on the computer or network of computers. Software packages can either be in a standardised package format to be installed by a program that is integrated with the operating system, or be a self-sufficient installer. This latter approach is commonly used by distributors of commercial, proprietary and closed source software, particularly for installation on Microsoft Windows, and less often for Mac OS X, whereas more traditional, and particularly free Unix-like operating systems favor the use of standardized formats that are extensions of file archive formats.
