------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Apr 24 05:00:12 -0700 2005 ------- The purpose of this issue is to increase the usability of installation on Windows. Therefore, I suggest we do not add unneccessary UI steps (and thus localisation needs). AFAIK Martins checkin asks the user where he/she wants to unpack the installation files. My attached NSIS script silently, unpacks the installation files to s subdirectory in the $TEMP directory and launches setup.exe. The utility that opens and handles MSI files is Windows Installer. Windows Installer is bundled in Windows XP and Windows 2000. The latest version (2.0) is already bundled in Windows XP but can be downloaded for Windows 95, 98, ME, NT4 and 2000. This means that any XP or 2000 user can doubleclick a single MSI file and it will launch the installer without the need for setup.exe etc. Windows 9x users may already have the Windows Installer installed without knowing. I am favoring moving to a single MSI file or alternatively using a silent NSIS wrapper. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
