Thanks congrats for the excellent free-open-source software Monica 1. Modify the OSGeo Live DVD with your changes and give that to people. http://live.osgeo.org 2. Use NSIS to build an installer that includes the winGRASS installer and your files. It allows you to reference installer exe within your installation. You'll just need to look at the docs for how to reference the directory where GRASS gets installed correctly. http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page 3. Checkout a copy of the winGRASS source and build a custom version (You can add files). Notice they also uses NSIS, here's the script that builds their installer http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/trunk/mswindows/GRASS-Installer.nsi I think the downside to this method is you'll need to compile GRASS too.

Hi Monica, Any suggestions of doing a stand-alone installer of GRASS plus a few modules of my own? just have a look at http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/CompileOnWindows compiling and packaging a standalone wingrass-installer isn't so difficult. best regards Helmut ___ GRATIS für alle WEB.DE Nutzer: Die maxdome Movie-FLAT!
