A zip of the TortoiseHg folder will give you a functional hgtk.exe and hg.exe, provided the target machine has the required MSVC 2008 CRT libraries installed. A bit more work would be required to make THG find TortoisePlink and KDiff3 if it's not added to the system path. -- Steve Borho ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
