π More than that, the .INX format marker can be reserved by extension (or add-on) descriptor utilized by Inkscape, an open-based editor for processing vector graphics and images. Precisely, the .INX labeled entities store descriptive data regarding the add-on, including in-program menu location and name of the descriptor. Besides, the .INX resources also specify a script for the add-on, including the variable arguments, script location, interpreter, and type.

Currently the InstallShield trademark is copyrighted and acquired by Flexera Software company, before 2008 entitled as Acresso Software corporate group.
