<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi David,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks for the feedback ... I don't see InnoSetup
as an option ... at least that approach wouldn't be anything I could
help with. I've never used it, and I have a fair amount of experience with NSIS
... and the overhead is only about 34kb (although that isn't much of an issue
with multi-megabyte installs since the resources tend to be several
megs)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm not all that eager to be responsible for
putting the installer together ... there is a lot that can go wrong and it
really needs input from people who are aware of the numerous applications that
might want to co-exist together sharing the same resources. I'd gladly hand off
the work so far on the nsis installer proto to anyone who wants to carry on
and wrap it up.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Lynn,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This might be a little late but I wanted to mention it to Troy (who said
that he has no objections) before I mentioned it to you. Although it seems
that you have almost completed the installer.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If there are any more problems I would suggest that you switch to
InnoSetup. Or ISTool which provides a good ide for InnoSetup.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I believe that the InnoSetup Wizard generally provides all that is needed
for most projects but for projects which maybe a little more complicated, and
may need to be changed from time to time ISTool would probably be better.
</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>About the only advantage that I can see which NSIS has over InnoSetup is
that installers are a little smaller (~200k). Getting the job done
quickly might be more important.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>And there is also a Form Designer available for InnoSetup.</DIV>
