Hi Hong
 
The distribution of stellarium via a windows installer is the easiest method of 
packaging the program that ensures that all the components end up in the places 
that the executive needs to find them. By using the inno compiler system the 
packaging process is completely automated from the main Stellarium compiler.
 
The making of  a zip file package could be possible using the components of the 
installed package but would need an extra step and some manual input and has 
not been deemed necessary at the moment. However if you need a zipped package 
it could be done easily enough by zipping up an installed version of Stellarium.
