Hi David,
Thanks for the feedback ... I don't see InnoSetup
as an option ... at least that approach wouldn't be anything I could
help with. I've never used it, and I have a fair amount of experience with NSIS
... and the overhead is only about 34kb (although that isn't much of an issue
with multi-megabyte installs since the resources tend to be several
megs)
I'm not all that eager to be responsible for
putting the installer together ... there is a lot that can go wrong and it
really needs input from people who are aware of the numerous applications that
might want to co-exist together sharing the same resources. I'd gladly hand off
the work so far on the nsis installer proto to anyone who wants to carry on
and wrap it up.

Installer
Lynn,
This might be a little late but I wanted to mention it to Troy (who said
that he has no objections) before I mentioned it to you. Although it seems
that you have almost completed the installer.
If there are any more problems I would suggest that you switch to
InnoSetup. Or ISTool which provides a good ide for InnoSetup.
I believe that the InnoSetup Wizard generally provides all that is needed
for most projects but for projects which maybe a little more complicated, and
may need to be changed from time to time ISTool would probably be better.
About the only advantage that I can see which NSIS has over InnoSetup is
that installers are a little smaller (~200k). Getting the job done
quickly might be more important.
And there is also a Form Designer available for InnoSetup.
