Re: [Zim-wiki] Zim 0.53 for Windows available now

2011-09-21 Thread Marco Cevoli
Thanks a lot, Brendan.

As a Windows user, I really appreciate your work.

Just a quick note: on http://www.glump.net/software/zim the table
reads: download 12MB, but the installer weighs about 21MB. Perhaps
it's a typo. I'm letting you know this, because the size difference
might confuse some users.

Kind regards

Marco Cevoli

 The Desktop Installer creates Start Menu shortcuts and shell launch
 integration for .zim files. The new Portable Installer based on
 PortableApps.com's toolchain creates no system-wide footprint and runs
 entirely from its installed folder. If you want to keep the executable on a
 thumbdrive or a network share, use the Portable version.
 If you installed a prerelease build of 0.53 for Windows, please reinstall
 from one of the installers published today!

 A note about the PortableApps.com tools: While I did use PortableApps.com's
 toolchain to build the portable installer (and save myself a lot of
 experimentation), I have not yet submitted the application to
 PortableApps.com. Surprisingly, there is no simple submit a new
 application form. You're expected to join the community, do the usual
 lurking, post a forum message in the Beta releases forum, and then hope
 that one of the catalog maintainers will pick up your project after people
 post positive comments. I suppose I can understand why they'd do it this
 way, but I expected something more like Freshmeat's workflow. Oh well. I'll
 be starting that process this week and if it ever goes anywhere I'll let you
 all know.

Thanks for pointing that out. I'd swapped the sizes of the two installers in
the wiki page, by mistake. Fixed it.
