I wrote it because I wanted something which I could compile/bundle in an automated fashion on Linux and wasn't huge. I played with the MSI tools briefly but couldn't see how I could get those features. But as it turns out the nullsoft scriptable install system has those features: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/ That's what Lambertus is using to create his MapSource installers: http://garmin.na1400.info/ Using the NSIS is better than the ad-hoc program I've written. I just wrote it because I thought there wasn't anything else I could use. So /ANNOUNCEMENT I guess :) _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
