Description
ndisgtk allows you to select an inf file to install a driver.
However, some companies ship drivers locked up in a Windows exe. In my case, I ran the file in WINE, and pointed ndisgtk at the extracted files, but this step could be semi automated.
I would imagine that most of these zip extraction executables work on a similar format, with a stub, and a zip file on the end, and extracting files from this could, in theory, be automated to make life easier for novice users.

Some widespread installers are designed to prevent that.
