Yes, InstallGadget relies on a Windows executable to compile the Windows installer. I know it's annoying and if I can find another way I will but it's so nice to have the standalone builder just carry on and make your dmg and installer that I doubt you will regret the download. > > Took me just a few ticks to create a .DMG, which worked fine.

If you have a few versions of rev you use then open up the one you want to install into first. Unfortunately Apple changed the .DS_Store file format in Snow Leopard so unless you make these DMGs on Leopard they won't be backwards compatible. > > I suppose I should have sent this off list, but I think that Installgadget > deserves a bit of unsolicited praise.
