Hello,

The UI is Swing-based, but most of the code for the actions is in the shell
scripts run in Cygwin. In front of the GUI there is a startup BAT file, but
for the most part, everything in this would easily port to Linux or UNIX
environements. When writing this, I kept the idea in mind that after initial
installation that a user could switch from the UI to just use the underlying
Nutch implementation as they progressed in their knowledge and requirements.
Because of this, Most of the logic is in scripts.

I used NSIS as the installer. It was one of the more complicated pieces of
the application, but I liked the level of integration that it achieved with
Windows (start menu, uninstall, registry key for Cygwin mount point, etc.)

More details of th implementation can be found in the application
documentation, and also at 
http://whelanlabs.home.comcast.net/~whelanlabs/content/SearchEngineManager.htm
the Search Engine Manager page  of my web site.

Regards,
John
