Is there a way to encapsule file and/or folder structures in a single file, like an archive, and work with those via extendScript?
Here's an example what I am looking for. At the moment my script gets e.g. file A from folder A, file B from folder B and file C from the root (and so on).
Visible for the user and the script:
myscript.jsx -> Folder A -> File A
myscript.jsx -> Folder B -> File A
myscript.jsx -> File C
What I am looking for ist something like this:
Visible for the user:
myscript.jsx -> the module
Visible for the script:
myscript.jsx -> the module -> Folder A -> File A
myscript.jsx -> the module -> Folder B -> File A
myscript.jsx -> the module -> File C
So I don't have to ship a script with a lot of visible (and potentially editable) files and folders to my users but only the script and a single file, that contains everything it needs to work.

I don't think so. You can't even do this in a clean fashion in plug-ins due to limitations in how AE can (not) dynamically load stuff when needed. At best I would imagine you could obfuscate it by hiding stuff behind dynamically changing panel layouts, but the script would still already be loaded fully in the background.
